can someone use meth and avoid getting meth mouth?!


Question: Can someone use meth and avoid getting meth mouth?
The main factors that cause the rapid decay of tooth enamel known as “Meth Mouth", are dry mouth, teeth clenching/grinding, craving for sugary drinks, the user's lack of dental care and the corrosive ingredients in the drug. Could a meth user avoid meth mouth by maintaining healthy dental habits, avoid drinking sugary drinks in excess, use products like Oasis (dry mouth relief), and pacifiers/gum?

I know for certain that not all people who use meth give up dental hygiene, crave sugary drinks, and clench their teeth while high on the drug.

Jaw clenching and teeth grinding are pretty much unavoidable at a certain point. It is entirely possible to use meth without ruining your teeth! But the main factor is going to be purity. If it wasn't made perfectly there will be residual hydrochloric acid which affects your teeth when smoked.
So obviously one way to avoid that problem is to eat it and avoid smoking it. This will also be better for your gums. But one of the biggest problems is that you don't eat enough on meth resulting in a state where your body does not have the proper balance of minerals causing your muscles to spasticly twitch and make your jaw clench etc. Basically your electrolytes are out of whack, so eating properly will help avoid that. But from a more holistic point of view I would say eventually your going to lose some teeth unless you have perfect health. Because using impure street meth will affect your liver, kidneys, and other organs, and since all your organ systems are tied together having kidney or liver problems will lead to other health conditions. You can actually look up charts that identify th relationship of each pair of teeth to particular internal organs, and if those organs are messed up then you could have problems with your gum at that tooth or even get a cavity there or feel pain! There is a branch of dentistry called holistic dentistry which has very few practitioners, but you could find out more about it by researching this. But honestly many productive citizens of society use methamphetamine in a responsible controlled manner, and I think that alot of things in our world would be different without that fact!
Just think of all the artists, jet pilots, and soldiers who attest to that fact!
Just be smart and dont listen to any fools who actually do the stuff on a daily basis, or cook it etc.
There is a line you have to draw and for alot of people they dont have the intelligence required to do that.
