Snuff Tobacco Health Question

#10411060 - 05/28/09 01:11 AM (17 years, 5 months ago)

To preface this I will explain why I'm asking.

I have been using chewing tobacco (snuff not actual chew) for about 10 years without many noticeable side-effects other than gum recession and the occasional canker sore.

This past week I was hit in the face and my lower left canine tooth went completely through my lip (around a 1cm hole). Because the cut was a puncture wound it was almost completely healed within 3-4 days, but the scab on the inside of the lip is not completely healed.

My question is whether or not chewing tobacco poses an infection risk to me with the exposed wound inside my mouth. I have put a chew in and there is no pain or stinging, but the concern of infection remains present.

I know that nicotine, although a poison, could potentially combat bacteria within the mouth - so in some sense I am also wondering whether or not the tobacco could have a positive effect in this scenario.

I'm not terribly well read on the subject, and I would appreciate some advice very greatly. Thanks in advance.

I don't want to be a nihilist, but sometimes it's difficult.
