Feminism is one hell of a drug. Meth face is more pleasant to look at than third wave feminist face

Meth face isn't real. The photos are taken of homeless schizophrenics.

Methamphetamine is actually schedule 2 (legal with prescription). There is nothing in the medical literature that suggests that tooth decay or "meth face" is a side effect of the drug.

Methamphetamine is extremely cheap. Therefore, homeless people can afford to use it. The root cause of the problem is not the drug, but the mental state of the homeless person being photographed for the next "meth face" PSA.

Hunter Biden has Dentures....

Meth causes dry mouth which causes dry rot of the teeth and decay of the gums.

There is no evidence in the medical literature for prescription methamphetamine that it causes tooth decay.

Plenty of medications cause dry mouth. Hell, if you don't drink enough water your mouth will get dry. Simply drink water.

The "meth mouth" is a side effect of being a mentally ill and homeless drug addict. They can't brush their teeth as regularly, which is what actually causes the decay of their teeth.

If Hunter Biden has a mental illness such as severe depression, then that would also cause tooth decay. It's not a side effect of the drug itself. It's just a common drug among the most poor due to it's extremely low cost.

“Meth Mouth” is a term endorsed and use by the American Dental Association.

According to the ADA, “Meth mouth” is characterized by severe tooth decay and gum disease, which often causes teeth to break or fall out. An examination of the mouths of 571 methamphetamine users showed:

96% had cavities
58% had untreated tooth decay
31% had six or more missing teeth

“The teeth of people addicted to methamphetamines are characterized by being blackened, stained, rotting, crumbling, and falling apart. Often, the teeth cannot be salvaged and must be removed. The extensive tooth decay is likely caused by a combination of drug-induced psychological and physiological changes resulting in dry mouth and long periods of poor oral hygiene. Methamphetamine itself is also acidic,” the ADA said."

Makes sense as meth addicts are always clenching their teeth for days on end. https://www.shorenewsnetwork.com/2020/10/16/new-york-post-hunter-biden-photos-claim-to-show-before-and-after-dental-work-to-fix-meth-mouth/

Yeah, it's used for narcolepsy and ADHD. The other thing to point out is that it's only prescribed in 5mg oral tablets.

Another component of methamphetamines harmfulness is that people will inject it (ROA or "route of administration) and that they will take doses far outside what is medically recommended.

It's still useful for some people from a medical standpoint. Perhaps they don't respond well to traditional ADHD medications, or they need a longer lasting aid against narcolepsy to allow them to function.
