Smoking can play havoc with your teeth/gums. Once you stop, your mouth can go beserk putting right the damage done by smoking.
During my quit I've had bleeding gums, several different teeth feeling uncomfortable sensitive at different times, gums feeling like cardboard, mouth tasting like I'd been chewing a saucepan - yuck.
While this was going on I was expecting the dentist would have to pull out teeth left right and centre, and yet now (amazingly) that seems unlikely! It's all settled down, and other than the occasional bleeding gum, all of the above have stopped.
So don't be surprised if you problems with teeth/gums for a little while.
