Meth users often blame smoking for destroying their teeth, but dehydration from the drug itself is the real cause. Switching to booty bumping, injecting, or hot-railing won't protect your teeth because the damage comes from dried-out gums, not the smoking method.
Okay, let me clear this misconception up. I keep getting these messages from guys who are asking for harm reduction techniques, which are fine, but there's this belief out there that if you just booty bump, or if you just inject, or hot rail, or inhale, or whatever it is that you do, every— anything besides smoking, that you'll keep your teeth. I want to tell you, for those of you out there, smoking meth does not ruin your teeth. Dehydration ruins your teeth. Crystal meth dehydrates you, and when your gums get dehydrated, your teeth rot out.
