Could this be a side …

Could this be a side effect of IQOS?

This question is more for dentists or people who have encountered this problem.
I smoked IQOS for a year, quit in July, but got tempted again in November. Now I've noticed that my upper left canine has become "exposed," meaning the gum, in simple terms, has started disappearing—the gum doesn't wrap around the tooth but has become triangular, exposing part of the tooth that should be under the gum. Could this be a side effect of IQOS?
P.S. I'm going to my dentist in a week because appointments are tight. But it's really worrying me...

If you're talking about "vapes," I'd be more interested in what happens in the lungs—where all that stuff ultimately settles... and how much the surface area suitable for gas exchange is reduced.

If you haven't smoked before, you might experience dizziness and nausea after smoking. This is temporary and not permanent. If it becomes persistent, sell your IQOS and try not to smoke or reduce the frequency. Generally, using 4-5 sticks a day is much better than a pack of regular cigarettes. Take care of your health!

After 20 years of smoking, I switched to Iqos 7 months ago, and today I decided to quit that too. My health is failing—throat issues, heart problems, rapid pulse, and even though it's rare, I've developed tinea versicolor on my face. My test results are fine, and doctors say I'm overthinking it, but I feel they play a direct role in this. Also, my throat gets very dry after using them; I only smoked the menthol ones.

Same thing here! Started getting tachycardia during smoking and weakness/dizziness afterward, which never happened before. Throat also gets dry and scratchy. But when gum problems started... that's something else. Time to quit :)
Wishing you health!))

I smoked regular cigarettes for about 11 years before switching to IQOS and tried quitting three times. I also tried e-cigarettes but gave up on them too. In another attempt to quit, I bought an IQOS.
I've been using it for a year now, and it's been awful. Yes, there's no cough, phlegm, or smell. But the nightmare it put me through pushed me to quit it urgently.
I lost a lot of weight, and a month ago, I had a full check-up with a gastroenterologist—no serious issues were found. However, after each stick I smoked (in the last month), I felt a dull ache and pulling in my left side, making it impossible to lie on my back. There was constant rumbling in my stomach. The doctor concluded that the cigarettes were to blame! Additionally, I experienced numbness in my fingers, tachycardia, and breakouts under my chin and on my back.
I haven't smoked anything for four days now, and all the symptoms are fading. I never had such severe issues with regular cigarettes.

Started having terrible migraines, went through every possible test. Until I heard from a couple of friends about the same issues with IQOS smoking. So IQOS straight to the trash, now it's getting better.

After 20 years of smoking cigarettes, I've been using Iqos for 2 years, about a pack a day, not inhaling into my lungs but like a cigar.
Today, I compared photos from 3 years ago and now, and I was horrified: my eyes are red, my skin has sagged, facial ptosis has appeared, not to mention the cough, lethargy, drowsiness, and dryness. I compared photos from all periods over the last 2-3 years, and there was never such a terrible difference.
My appearance after two years of smoking Iqos is terrifying, and what about my brain—I can't gather my thoughts, like Alzheimer's disease, no thoughts, no memory, I feel like a deer-seal, honestly, I'm 37.
What should I do? Switch back to cigarettes, maybe? I came here to read reviews from people with similar problems... I can't quit smoking completely; I've been smoking Sinator for two days now.

So you're not scared that at 37 you're completely losing your health? Besides everything else, think about how much money you're giving to those who help you destroy this health. You're paying tribute every day (doesn't matter how much, the essence is important) so that with every smoked cigarette or stick you shorten your life by an hour. This is the perfect course in your life, the government doesn't need pensioners, everything's correct, keep killing yourself. Later when the rooster pecks you in the ass and you're tied to an oxygen tank and quit, it'll be too late.

Anyway decided to quit, smoking cigarettes for 11 years, but never had anything like this before.

I've been smoking Iqos for a year, but I'm quitting today. This is the third time I've visited an ENT specialist due to throat pain and irritation. The ENT says it's burns from stomach acid reflux, but I never had such throat burns before, even though I've always had chronic gastritis—my stomach hurt, but my throat never bothered me. I suspect Iqos is causing these burns because when I stop smoking, everything goes away! It's hard to prove since a person might have other health issues, and you wouldn't immediately suspect Iqos!

IQOS literally poisoned my blood. My face broke out in acne, mucus started coming out of my nasopharynx every 3-5 minutes. I got angular cheilitis and redness on my beard area. My stomach started hurting—diagnosed with a duodenal ulcer. Quit that crap, things started getting better, but it's been almost half a year and my body still hasn't cleared all the aftereffects. Redness on my face remains.

Exactly the same for me! I'm 39. On top of that, everything has dried up, both my eyes and lips! Constant fatigue, yawning, and all the other things you listed. The only plus in it - it doesn't stink! Otherwise - poison! I'll have to keep stinking. Unfortunately, I can't quit.

I used to smoke cigarettes. For New Year's, I decided to give myself a gift. Bought an IQOS. STARTED smoking it. Got a headache, my blood pressure went up, and then had a hemorrhagic stroke in the right part of the cerebellum. Thank God the Lord protected me, everything moves and functions. Now I don't smoke anything.

The stuff people write here is just nonsense. I smoked IQOS for almost a year. I felt fantastic—all the ailments from cigarettes went away, my complexion improved, my skin got better, and I had more energy. My headaches stopped, I started sleeping well, and my circulation problems disappeared (I had impaired brain circulation from cigarettes). Anyway, I quit IQOS because I started getting counterfeit sticks, and they made me literally nauseous. I got tired of searching different stores for quality ones and gave up. The taste became so bad it just triggers a gag reflex. I decided to start smoking regular cigarettes again—but couldn't, they're so disgusting, as if there's no tobacco, just paper. I found Voke cigarettes for myself and only smoked those; at least you can feel the tobacco in them. So, after a year and a half, my vascular problems started again, work is stressful, and I started smoking a lot. I bought a Glo. For two days, it was fine, but today I started noticing that disgusting taste coming back. I feel like throwing up. But I won't go back to cigarettes. I don't know how to beat this habit anymore.

The whole problem is that cigarette and stick manufacturers in Russia make their products not from tobacco, but from some kind of hay or paper. Cigarettes and sticks from abroad (Europe, America) are of completely different quality! Just like food products. They're simply poisoning all of us.

I've got the same problem. I switched to Iqos in the summer of 2020. By November, I started experiencing dizziness, and in January, tachycardia, high blood pressure, and panic attacks. I went through all the medical tests, and everything was fine. I quit it immediately. I'm still suffering from the aftereffects.

I used IQOS for about 2 months, then my throat started hurting and my tonsils became inflamed. I switched to regular cigarettes. I've been treating my throat for almost a year now, but the inflammation still hasn't gone away. The ENT specialist just shrugs, all the tests are normal... I'll try to quit smoking somehow.

I have been a regular cigarette smoker for 25 years, more than a pack a day.
I decided to switch to "safer" smoking...
I bought an Iqos, purchased two types of sticks, and... I couldn't even finish half of the first pack of sticks!!! This is something else...
1. It scratches the throat as if it's been coated with kerosene. Wild dryness in both the throat and nose!
2. In the lungs (for a long time after smoking a stick), there's an unpleasant sensation of unnatural warmth, like a slight burn there, and the feeling that they've been squeezed and compressed. The chest doesn't open up... Forgot how to breathe ))
3. Nausea, quite strong, immediately, and it goes away slowly.
4. The head 🤕 starts to ache.
5. And then tachycardia—the heart practically jumps out!
I went back to cigarettes...
And they seemed so mild, so weak, so unnoticeable in my body compared to Iqos...
So, think about it, as they say, what's more harmful: the old, familiar harmful or the new, unstudied, supposedly less harmful)))
But, of course, it's best not to smoke anything at all!

I've been smoking IQOS for 3 years, and it's fucking terrible. I developed hives. Today I had an endoscopy - erosion in the lower part of my stomach. The immunologist-dermatologist said that IQOS is several times worse than cigarettes. It specifically triggered this erosion (( My friend, who never had any skin problems before, developed dermatitis on his hands. He quit - everything went away. Anyway, I wish you and myself to get rid of this harmful habit as soon as possible, which so significantly worsens our quality of life!

Attention, please!!! Issues with tonsils, drowsiness, and health imbalances occur due to the withdrawal from the intoxication caused by the tar from regular cigarettes! I quit before and was out of it for half a year.
But IQOS definitely dries you out, and there's also a stupid reaction to nicotine—it knocks you out, causes weakness, slight nausea, and sleepiness.
I don't feel like smoking anything—I switched from regular cigarettes to IQOS, smoking one stick a day in the morning, and I'm thinking I might be able to quit completely.

I smoked regular cigarettes for about 11 years before switching to IQOS and tried quitting three times. I also tried e-cigarettes but gave up on them too. In another attempt to quit, I bought an IQOS.
I've been using it for a year now, and it's been awful. Yes, there's no cough, phlegm, or smell. But the nightmare it put me through pushed me to quit it urgently.
I lost a lot of weight, and a month ago, I had a full check-up with a gastroenterologist—no serious issues were found. However, after each stick I smoked (in the last month), I felt a dull ache and pulling in my left side, making it impossible to lie on my back. There was constant rumbling in my stomach. The doctor concluded that the cigarettes were to blame! Additionally, I experienced numbness in my fingers, tachycardia, and breakouts under my chin and on my back.
I haven't smoked anything for four days now, and all the symptoms are fading. I never had such severe issues with regular cigarettes.
Today is day 3 since I quit IQOS, same crap with my left side. Scary what's happening with my side—gurgling, heaviness, plus either constipation or intestinal cramps. Thought I was the only one 🤦♀️ As soon as I stopped smoking IQOS, the symptoms went away. Day 3 and my side is quiet, no nausea or gurgling.

I bought an IQOS, and after about three months, I developed severe throat pain. I first went to a general practitioner for treatment, but it was useless. Then I saw one ENT specialist, followed by another... Almost a year passed, and in the end, I figured out on my own that it was nicotine stomatitis. If symptoms appear, go straight to a dentist. Treat it specifically as nicotine stomatitis—the palate becomes inflamed, and everything stems from that. The main condition for recovery is to quit smoking.

Same problem with quitting, and from IQOS I started having panic attacks, I can't sleep at night, it's just all so sad (even sedatives don't help). To everyone who started this thing - I smoked IQOS for about 3 years and here are the consequences. I quit it, smoked regular cigarettes two or three a day and this didn't happen, smoked IQOS for a day and here we go again panic attacks 😥😭 take care of yourselves don't smoke this crap

It's better to quit completely, just snap and quit! That's what I did when I snapped, even though I had a giant smoking history. You need to decide for yourself - are you in control of your life or are you a weak-willed slave to cigarettes?

Same thing here! Started getting tachycardia during smoking and weakness/dizziness afterward, which never happened before. Throat also gets dry and scratchy. But when gum problems started... that's something else. Time to quit :)

I can confirm, same thing, once I almost fainted from weakness, who knows what crap they mix in this stuff. In the morning my gums were bleeding terribly so I stopped immediately, it went away after about 3 days. I also had tachycardia, ended up at the doctor's. These aren't safe cigarettes, they're dangerous health-wrecking bullshit

I have the same thing after IQOS. Haven't smoked at all for 36 hours))), but I want to. I won't. What pushed me to stop was the strongest cough. Suffocating.

Hello, same thing here - I've visited all the ENT doctors, had terrible throat pain, lump sensation and dryness, constant fear and discomfort. A couple times when I stopped smoking iQOS it got better. When I started again, the pain immediately returned. Once I choked on a fish bone and had to swallow the tube, and the doctor said my larynx was coated. She told me to quit, said it's a terrible thing. Now I'm fighting this habit.

I used IQOS for about 2 months, then my throat started hurting and my tonsils became inflamed. I switched to regular cigarettes. I've been treating my throat for almost a year now, but the inflammation still hasn't gone away. The ENT specialist just shrugs, all the tests are normal... I'll try to quit smoking somehow.
Most likely it's sublingual neuralgia.

And there's no feeling of being high or anything?
I'm in that state too ((( I also came here to read. Need to quit. Can't gather my thoughts together.

The whole problem is that cigarette and stick manufacturers in Russia make their products not from tobacco, but from some kind of hay or paper. Cigarettes and sticks from abroad (Europe, America) are of completely different quality! Just like food products. They're simply poisoning all of us.
Oh yeah, quality cigarettes don't poison anyone at all. ))))) straight up vitamins ))))))))))))

I've been using Iqos for 8 months and my health has deteriorated significantly. My throat gets dry, I develop tachycardia after smoking... I feel extremely unwell. Iqos is complete nonsense. It's absolutely contraindicated to smoke. It kills you slowly.
And this is coming from a smoker )))))))) they're giving you the same nicotine in larger amounts. iQOS, cigarettes... you shouldn't consume all kinds of crap and take health for granted...

I can confirm, same thing, once I almost fainted from weakness, who knows what crap they mix in this stuff. In the morning my gums were bleeding terribly so I stopped immediately, it went away after about 3 days. I also had tachycardia, ended up at the doctor's. These aren't safe cigarettes, they're dangerous health-wrecking bullshit
And regular cigarettes are good for your health? ))))))))) they're the same shit just killing you more slowly. So stretching out the process makes it more pleasant? )))))))

Ideally, the best option among all is to buy tobacco and tubes. Not the factory-made ones. But the trouble with many tobacco suppliers is that the same variety can be of different ages. It could be not very matured and therefore very strong, or the opposite—milder. But you can't guess.

For myself, I've chosen Herzegovina Flohr tobacco, with an addition of Polish Virginia Gold. It's also light but very drying. It's more for the aroma. I add about 20 to 25 percent.

For those who find it too strong, set it for aeration for a month. Expose the tobacco to air. A bit of nicotine will oxidize. Adding cognac during aeration helps, but the aroma flies away.

It will turn out something like White Java in strength. You won't lower the nicotine level any further.

Yes. To start, you can mix in some low-quality factory cigarettes with 0.1 nicotine. Let your body get used to it. It will take from three months to half a year. But keep in mind, this is with slim tubes. If it's hard to find thin tubes, then go for roll-ups. A rolling machine, filters. Non-factory tobacco compared to factory tobacco is like night and day.

IQOS, cigarettes. What?

I smoked Iqos for a year. Terrible side effects started—acne all over my face, back, and chest. I was diagnosed with demodicosis and took many antibiotics and medications to treat the acne, but it didn't go away. I also started having panic attacks, drowsiness, and weakness. Overall, it was awful what was happening to my body. I didn't realize right away that all of this was due to Iqos. I haven't smoked for a month, and everything is slowly getting better.
