Official title
Treatment of Smokeless Tobacco Users
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Though spit tobacco is smokeless, it still affects the cardiovascular system and may be associated with heart disease, stroke, and high blood pressure. Long-term effects of smokeless tobacco (ST) include tooth abrasion, gum recession, mouth disease, loss of bone in the jaw, yellowing of teeth, and chronic bad breath. This study will assess the effectiveness of using tobacco free snuff in reducing levels of exposure to tobacco and associated toxicity, as well as enhancing motivation to either quit or sustain lower levels of nicotine intake.
