Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 1,140 Likes: 1 | Brian, I would be very, very happy to put brochures in the office of every dentist in this small town and will happily pay the postage to get them to me. It was a local dentist who told me not to worry about the red spot in the back of my mouth. Yes, indeed, I will do a happy dance to be able to provide such information.
Edited to say that if there are enough, I will do the other small towns in the area. I think outside of the big cities, there is a pitiful lack of information. | | |

Thank You! In every other area of my life I can say this from the last stand point of a leader, as far as nicotine goes I need to be vigilant in defining reality by removing this poison and not following my cravings.
Off to educate those unaware!
Take care
