Can vaping cause oral cancer? Research and more
Vaping is under scrutiny for its potential link to oral cancer and other health risks such as genotoxicity and oxidative stress. Although research from 2023 points to certain chemicals in e-cigarettes as carcinogenic and capable of causing oral cancer, the exact connection is still unclear. Flavored e-cigarettes may encourage long-term use, heightening risks. Nicotine addiction, especially in young users, is a concern. Further studies are needed to fully grasp the long-term effects of vaping on health.
