Opiate misconceptions and toxic differentials

Methadone DOES NOT rot your teeth.
This is a myth and totally un-proven!
Yes, I have some sites you can go to, if you would like to read the real facts.

methadonecenters.com
methadone.org (take the test....)


I can put up more if you need them.

The reason you see people on methadone having dental problems is because they have let hygine fall to the wayside while indulging in addiction.
No hygine, rotting teeth.
There is also the fact that most people on methadone lean towards LOTS of sweets. If you eat lots of sweets, and have a pretty crappy history of cleaning your mouth, you are going to have rotting teeth.
By posting that methadone causes teeth to rot, you are playing into one of the oldest falsehoods around.
I think that maybe you should read up on a topic before you post "facts" and "misconceptions" about it.
