            Everyone knows that smoking cigarettes can lead to serious health problems, but a threat to health doesn't seem to be a good reason for quitting anymore. Smokers tend to ignore all the information that is given to them about the dangers of smoking cigarettes. Besides the possibility of developing lung cancer and dying, there are also a lot more effects that are caused by smoking cigarettes.

The first effect of cigarette smoking is one that most people don't even take into consideration. It is bad for their hygiene. Cigarettes have been proven to make people's skin pale, and their fingernails yellow. Smoking also stains people's teeth, turning them yellow or brown. Since these effects are long term, most people won't even realize the damage that's done to their hygiene when they start smoking.The truth is that cigarette stains are very hard to remove from teeth, and it will probably end up costing a large amount of money to fix. Yellow teeth are disgusting because they make people look older and unhygienic, and that is caused directly by smoking cigarettes.
