What medicines can help tobacco-related mouth problems?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I have gone through your query and understand your concern.

In case of inability to open your mouth properly, this has many factors that you did not mention (other than tobacco), such as stress, oral hygiene habits, previous history of trauma, or dental problems in general or related to wisdom teeth.

All these can affect the proper diagnosis and treatment.

Generally speaking, you have to:

1. Eat soft food and avoid hard or crispy foods.

2. Eat in small bites and avoid multilayered sandwiches.

3. Reduce stress as much as you can, as it may cause you to grind your teeth aggressively, causing further problems with your jaw joint.

4. Use a warm compress on your cheeks around the jaw joint. Repeat it every three to four hours until the muscles are relieved.

5. Use a muscle relaxant medication, such as Chlorzoxazone 250 mg, every 12 hours.

6. Stop smoking and tobacco consumption.

7. Maintain good oral hygiene.

If you do not get relief within two days, kindly visit your dentist for further clinical examination and X-rays, if needed, to identify the exact underlying cause and receive appropriate treatment.

I hope I have answered your question.

Let me know if I can assist you further.

Thank you.
