Nicotine products are among the most highly regulated on the market. The agency said in October that about 1.8% of middle- and high-schoolers – about 890,000 young people – reported using nicotine pouches. Philip Morris’ website clearly requires users to verify that they are 21 and that they use tobacco products. If a person says they don’t use tobacco products, they get a screen that says the product is not for them. More states and cities are banning flavored nicotine products, so they may be subject to further regulations.

Vaping may increase a person's risk for cavities and tooth decay, preliminary new research suggests. Adding artificial sweeteners and flavorings to the sticky aerosol may create the perfect breeding ground for cavities. The new study, published Wednesday in the Journal of the American Dental Association, is considered preliminary and does not prove that vaping causes cavities. But because e-cigarette usage is so rampant among adolescents — with 2.5 million teens vaping in the United States alone — the possibility that it could increase the risk for tooth decay in this generation is worrisome, experts who study vaping in young people said. Among these high-risk patients, e-cigarette users, Irusa found, were at a "significantly" higher risk of developing cavities, compared with those who did not vape.
