Smoking, drinking alcohol and poor eating habits can cause periodontal disease, dental caries, inflammation and irreversible damages to your teeth.

My name is Phillip and I am a musician. I play in a Blues Band, and have a regular club I play at every Wednesday, and I also tour for between 4 and 6 months. During these times, I drink a fair bit of booze. We are not a big band you see, and so we drink with the locals, whenever they offer as a sign of respect that they came out to see us. My teeth are quite horrid, but I am British, smoke regularly, drink coffee and eat sweets, besides the booze. I am trying to sort out my life currently, and am wondering how bad is alcohol for your teeth really? I am already trying to quit smoking and am eating far less sugar, and I am wondering how much of an improvement quitting alcohol can be to my mouth.
