Oral diseases affect 3.5 billion people globally, with low- and middle-income countries bearing the greatest burden due to limited access to care.

It highlights that smoke-free nicotine alternatives, alongside traditional cessation methods, can help alleviate the economic and health disparities caused by smoking-related oral diseases, especially in underserved regions.
