Not opening of mouth
As one of my friend used to chew tobbaco alot his mouth is not opening fully, now he has stopped chewing tobbaco since last 4months bt still mouth isnt opening...
Stopping of Gutka or tobacco itself would not relieve your sub mucous fibrosis. U need proper laser keratomy of your fibrosis. We can cut open the fibrous bands of fibrosis by Diode lasers, which we have been pioneers in using for the last 15 years. Plz feel free to consult Laser Smile Care Centre anytime. God bless.

OSMF once developed will not improve soon after tobacco cessation. However the stoppage of gutka/tobacco will definitely decrease the chance of deterioration. Consult an oral surgeon with regard to the improvement of mouth opening that he desires.

Hi, due to prolonged chewing of ghutka , the cheek becomes stiff & non elastic due to fibrosis , this will take a long time to disappear but cessation of the habit is of prime importance in reverting this condition, pls consult an oral medicine specialist .
