Smoker loses six teeth when cigarette explodes in his mouth – Daily Telegraph

February 3, 2010 by John Allen · 1 Comment 

We have all heard the reasons why people should not smoke; lung and mouth and throat cancers, heart problems, prematurely aged skin, smelly clothes and hair, difficulty in finding a date, etc.  But here is a new reason to consider. 

One particular brand of cigarettes sold in Indonesia has a tendency to explode in your mouth.  One man lost six teeth. 

Wow!  You really must want to smoke cigarettes to put up with that!  The story is entitled Smoker loses six teeth when cigarette explodes in his mouth .  I hope he stopped smoking. 

He was riding his motorcycle to work when the butt he was dragging upon decided to violently remove about a fourth of his dental capacity.  I think he should seriously consider becoming a non-smoker.  You can bet that he was a non-eater for a while.

Quick Links: Asbestos & Mesothelioma - Mesothelioma Cancer Center - Mesothelioma Lawyers - Mesothelioma Treatment
Hundreds of thousands of servicemen were exposed to asbestos over decades, especially during the period from 1940 to 1980. Asbestos was used in construction of naval vessels as well as shore facilities. All branches of the military used asbestos, which was also widely used in civilian applications. Asbestos can cause mesothelioma. Because this cancer has a particularly long latency period, many servicemen who were exposed years ago are now developing this disease. - Mesothelioma Patient & Family Resources: Mesotheliomahelp is provided by Belluck & Fox, LLP as a comprehensive resource for mesothelioma victims and their families.  The site provides up-to-date information on the latest news and treatment options as well as an easy to use search feature to find local mesothelioma doctors and health care clinics.  - We fight for veterans harmed by asbestos: Veterans with mesothelioma or asbestos-related lung cancer should know they have options: the opportunity to bring a suit against manufacturers and sellers of the asbestos that caused their illness. If you were harmed by asbestos exposure, for example, in ships or military housing, contact Weitz & Luxenberg to get a free case review. - Important Information for Veterans: Asbestos products were often used on military ships and within military housing, and Veterans may have been exposed. Previous exposure to asbestos is the only known cause of mesothelioma, a fatal cancer that has no cure and affects countless Veterans and loved ones.
