Are vapes really a safe alternative to cigarettes? - Ask the Dentist about E-cigs

Dr. Charles Sidney Burwell once said that half of what is taught may be wrong. The debate on vaping's safety continues due to harmful substances in e-cigarette liquids. Vaping may not be the safe cigarette alternative marketed, with concerns about addiction and health effects on oral tissues. E-cigarettes contain toxic metals and high nicotine levels, possibly leading younger users to traditional cigarettes. Research links vaping to mouth and throat issues, including decay and microbiome disturbances. Despite potential cell regeneration, the long-term impact of vaping remains uncertain. The ongoing uncertainty echoes Burwell's caution regarding distinguishing between right and wrong in teachings.
