So, I've recently slowed way down on my cigarette habit and started dipping.

I've been chewing Skoal Apple(fuck off) and I love the smell, taste and buzz. It's like smoking multiple cigarettes at once.

I'm on my second can now, and I've been dipping for about a week.

Today after a dip, I felt some pain so I took a look at my gums and the front ones in between the lip have somewhat died off, but the ones in between the teeth are still there.

I'm not worried, I know shit happens and that dip is loaded with fiberglass, but I was just wondering...

After someone chews for say, a year, will their gums cease to exist? How can people possibly chew for 20 years and shit, without their bottom teeth falling out? Is it a bad thing to not have those front gums, and does this happen to everyone who chews?

it all depends on the person. pretty much everybody is going to end up with their gums at least cut to hell after a year of moderate use, but that dosnt mean that it will do permanent damage if you do quit one day.

honestly, if you must have nicotine, get some patches.
or have a few cigs every now and then when your on other drugs/drinking, if you can handle it.

You are aware that snuff is actually snortable tobacco which nobody really does anymore unless they're a fucking idiot. Snuff bullets are great for cocaine though .

Snuff bullet is pretty much just a legal term for just that reason

Just like bongs need to be called waterpipes, and of course, are used for tobacco only

Same with snuff kits. Little folding case that has a mirror, razor blade, metal straw, little spoon, and a small vial for your "snuff".

Thar you go. For all your snuffing needs.

Yeah the onlye "snuff" you're likely to find today is "snus", a spitless, mild tobacco product that I really don't like. Dipping is great, but if you can't chill on dips when your lip starts to hurt like I do because of dependency, then just mix it up I guess, different spots in your mouth etc. Also Skoal is mid-grade tobacco. I usually dip griz or kodiak, and occasionally Redman (yes there is a redman dip) and those leave me waaaay more cut up than Skoal. The least cutting dip in my experience is Copenhagen, but its like $7/can here so its never worth it. Also, don't start gutting it sounds convenient but in the end you're just begging for stomach cancer.

I am pretty sure that there is two different kinds one for sniffing one for dipping

hes right. in the USA at least, there is a form of "chewing/dipping" tobacco that is called snuff.

Enjoy your mouth cancer, skoal is fucking gross especially apple id rather smoke

even "snuff" like copenhagen isnt real snuff. it's moist.

i know. just thought id mention it.
