Honestly this guy was probably the luckiest out of all the other cigarette victims. When you think about it Terrie died of cancer, Marlene gets eye injections, Bill lost some of his limbs AND had diabetes, Shawn had his stoma cut open...the list goes on and on! Still not an excuse to smoke!!
Thank god my dad stopped smoking I begged him to stop it's been 5 years since he has had a cigarete when I show him these adds or when they show up on tv he crys and Hugs me and tells me thank you thank you!! You saved my life I would like to thank the people in these adds thank you! You Savedy dad life
It just proves that smoking not only stains your teeth, it can cause you to lose your teeth. I don't think brushing and flossing would be enough to prevent this, if you smoke. The poor guy is under 50 and already he has partial dentures. If you smoke but also want to keep your teeth, take this man's commercial seriously and QUIT while you still have your teeth. Plus, if your dentist asks if you smoke, DON'T LIE.
Excatly. My brother was smoking when he was 14, I tried my best to keep him from smoking but it kept getting worse. After we went to a counslar with smoking problems, Hes changed alot. Now its now a happy living for my brother.
I never want to see this ever again I feel so sorry for you I would never smoke and I'm glad you quit you are a brave man and I'm proud of you you are lucky to be alive
I won't smoke because it's just not worth the risk. I often barely think of the consequences of my actions, but these PSAs make me look those consequences in the face.
I had to find this ad just because it literally made my one year old niece bust out into tears and run away as she screamed ew to the top of her lungs.
If they smoke their life away than what can we do to stop them? Usually people don't listen until its too late. And I know some that are so addicted even on their death bed all they want is another cig
Those are some pretty good fake teeth. The first time I saw this I was surprised cause they look pretty convincing. He looks completely fine if they're on.
Although I'm sure this is an effective commercial for people who might have recently taken up smoking - I don't smoke anyway so don't need convincing not to - I wish it didn't have to play every 2 minutes on my television. The sound it makes when he's removing those dentures makes me nauseous to my core. Which is obviously the point, but I'm pretty sick of not being able to watch TV without having to change the channel or hit mute every time this grotesque commercial comes on lest I lose my lunch. I mean, at what point does a commercial go from effectively gross to harassment by being on absolutely nonstop and making the innocent non-smoking viewer want to cringe and barf repeatedly? I have moved to feeling sorry for Brett to being angry he is on my TV so much making those denture noises.
I smoke but I do feel kind of disturbed by those denture noises. My dad has dentures but he doesn't make those noises. I have felt the commercial was harassing.
Yeah exactly! I know other people in real life that feel this way too. I'm not sure the channels they play this on either would love that people desperately grab remote to change the channel when this comes on and go to a different network!
Angelie Garcia-Fuentes Yeah, I know a lot of people with dentures or partials (smokers and nonsmokers) and of the few I've been within earshot when they have had to remove or put them on, none of them made that sound.
To be fair he got off pretty easy: Loosing teeth sucks for sure, but I’m pretty sure lung cancer, throat cancer, stroke,, emphasimia or heart disease are are way worse
What does it say? It says that you and thousands of other people who never smoked a day in their life wear dentures...maybe if you brushed your teeth more often and went to the dentist, you might still have your teeth...that would make more sense
I bet when Brett got gum disease, that is probably what caused him to lose his teeth. The teeth that he pulled out in this ad is fake teeth. He needed it so he can eat foods until he can get his own teeth back. My tip is: Tell other smokers to do themselves a favor and quit now.
In the United States, 480,000 people die from tobacco-related diseases every year, and millions more suffer serious health effects as a result of smoking. Brett suffers from gum disease, which is a danger for all smokers, and by the time he was 42 he had lost most of his teeth. Smokers have twice the risk for gum disease compared to nonsmokers, and tobacco use in any form - cigarettes, pipes, and smokeless tobacco - raises your risk for gum disease.

I don't smoke, never have and never will. These ads are disgusting and should not be aired. The most recent ad airs during family hour when small children can view these. It is not the CDC's role to educate our children, it is our.
Kate Meinhardt huh? I hate when people automatically assume the worst. I had rotting teeth before I got new permanent teeth put in. And thats exactly what everyone said about me when I've never even seen meth. Cigarettes cause gum disease which cause your teeth to rot. The day I got a do over on teeth was the day I quit smoking. This ignorant comment you made is exactly what it looks like when you hear someone who automatically thinks that fatness is caused by overeating. Because... no.... it couldn't possibly be caused by an underlying medical condition could it? Nope... you're just chunky because you have no self control and eat everything in sight. There can be no other explanation.
Am I the only one that this stupid commercial just makes physically ill??? I feel the need to throw up every time it comes on. Darn near vomited all over the place the other day when it came on and I was eating something.,
He has gum disease from NOT Flossing and Brushing his teeth!! Ugh...My Great Aunt smoked all the way up to 101 years old and when she died, she had a full set of teeth!!
I don't feel sympathetic for someone like Brett or any of these other former smokers in these campaigns. People know the dangers of smoking and yet a lot of them refuse to quit because they have the mentality of 'this can never happen to me.' Now that Brett lost most of his teeth in his early 40s, every time he will smile in the mirror will remind him of his disgusting habit and the stupid decision he made to smoke. Well deserved in my opinion.

One of the reasons I don't smoke and never will!
Ikr
jhgjhggj Me too
This is exactly why I never smoke. I feel bad for this man. I wish he can get his real teeth back.
Someday, we'll get medical advances to do that. I know it. x
I hope we do.
It just proves that smoking not only stains your teeth, it can cause you to lose your teeth. I don't think brushing and flossing would be enough to prevent this, if you smoke.

You cannot lie to a dentist about that. If you are a smoker, your teeth will say so.
How do you know he's under 50?
A F because in the video it said his age which was 49 on the left corner
0:21 Brett: what does this say?
Me: it says don't smoke
who else is watching these to scare themselves out of smoking
I feel like crying because he needs a chance of taking care of his teeth and find a way to get his gums right back to normal.
This happened to my grandmother, now she has dentures. :(
My grandpa was a heavy smoker. He lost all his teeth.
I never want to see this ever again I feel so sorry for you I would never smoke and I'm glad you quit you are a brave man and I'm proud of you you are lucky to be alive
What does it say? It says don't smoke in the first place because it can cause tooth loss and gum disease (obviously).
This is SOO sad!!!!😭😰
I had that same problem. Eating donuts and not brushing was to blame, not smoking.
About 6 years ago when I was 8 my dad used to smoke he stopped about 4 years ago after finding these ads these ads Benn existing probably 8 or 9 years
mmm i loved those teeth noises
Compared to Terrie, this guy doesn't seem that horribly off.
Ivory The Elephant terrie is more worse
Ivory The Elephant lmaoooooooo
She passed away
He's still suffering from the effects of smoking though.
A powerful illustration of how smoking can accelerate the detrimental affects of gum disease.
It's never too late to quit smoking...
But it's too late to change the way you look after you smoke :(
I now have receding gums and gum disease from smoking. I'm trying to quit, but it's hard.
I'm 22
R
cumulo25 get a new habit... lollipops?
I won't smoke because it's just not worth the risk. I often barely think of the consequences of my actions, but these PSAs make me look those consequences in the face.
what does that say it says never smoke cigarette
He didn't smile at all...he just opened his mouth.
I had to find this ad just because it literally made my one year old niece bust out into tears and run away as she screamed ew to the top of her lungs.
I feel so bad for him
00:20 Happy Halloween!🎃
If they smoke their life away than what can we do to stop them? Usually people don't listen until its too late. And I know some that are so addicted even on their death bed all they want is another cig
Those are some pretty good fake teeth. The first time I saw this I was surprised cause they look pretty convincing. He looks completely fine if they're on.
Honestly, if these commercials don't stop smoking, nothing will.
At least commercials put out there cigarettes before being aired again on TV
Although I'm sure this is an effective commercial for people who might have recently taken up smoking - I don't smoke anyway so don't need convincing not to - I wish it didn't have to play every 2 minutes on my television.

Yeah exactly! I know other people in real life that feel this way too. I'm not sure the channels they play this on either would love that people desperately grab remote to change the channel when this comes on and go to a different network!
kross65 That's the point to make people aware of what smoking can do. Also, make people aware about the affects.
Angelie Garcia-Fuentes Yeah, I know a lot of people with dentures or partials (smokers and nonsmokers) and of the few I've been within earshot when they have had to remove or put them on, none of them made that sound.
I can’t stand people thinking this type of stuff is funny because it’s not it’s actually really serious and sad
OMG, The noise that it was making his he was pulling his teeth out horrible !!!! 🤢🤢🤢🤢🤮
To be fair he got off pretty easy:
Loosing teeth sucks for sure, but I’m pretty sure lung cancer, throat cancer, stroke,, emphasimia or heart disease are are way worse
How is Brett doing as of today?
5Mariner Thank you for asking.... having dental partials is not awesome, but I'm alive and doing ok. Brett.
Glad to hear it
I was gonna write something deep but I now have short term memory loss. Curse you marijuana..
what does that say ???.... says to keep those fake teeth on ......
Sinista Lethalscratch LOL ur mean and funny at the same time!
Lol hha
It's SUPPOSED to say, "Don't smoke unless you want to lose your teeth!"
So if someone WANTED to lose their teeth, would smoking be the way to go?
Really? You're making jokes while this man has to face the fact that half his teeth are gone? How could you?
What dose this say LISTEN TO YOUR HEALTH TEACHER
I have seen this ad on tv and would like to know how to get the FCC to put this gross ad.
What does it say? It says that you and thousands of other people who never smoked a day in their life wear dentures...maybe if you brushed your teeth more often and went to the dentist, you might still have your teeth...that would make more sense
0:21 That looks CREEPY!!!😨😱
That's sad
his dentist will get mad and freak out when brett doesn't have teeth
"What does this say?" - I was a hockey player.
My dad has it even worse than that.... All of his teeth are half of the size they should be and black
I bet when Brett got gum disease, that is probably what caused him to lose his teeth. The teeth that he pulled out in this ad is fake teeth. He needed it so he can eat foods until he can get his own teeth back. My tip is: Tell other smokers to do themselves a favor and quit now.
Don’t ever smoke! It will harm your health and your entire body. ⚠️
It says, "Click clack clickity slurp clack."
Hey Let me ask you a question is Smoking Really that Bad?
In the United States, 480,000 people die from tobacco-related diseases every year, and millions more suffer serious health effects as a result of smoking. Brett suffers from gum disease, which is a danger for all smokers, and by the time he was 42 he had lost most of his teeth.

i clicked this on accident
OMG!
I've been smoking since I was 16! I'm now 78! I guess I have good genetics huh? I mean at 78 even a non smoker won't be able to run a marathon!
Yes, what does it say preciousss?
Brett what happened to your teeth
This is bad n I'm not going to smoke a cigarette ever and it's going to my teeth is bad.
:(
Funny how these ads don't actually specify what these people smoked. Missing front teeth? My go-to explanation is meth!
Kate Meinhardt huh? I hate when people automatically assume the worst. I had rotting teeth before I got new permanent teeth put in. And thats exactly what everyone said about me when I've never even seen meth. Cigarettes cause gum disease which cause your teeth to rot. The day I got a do over on teeth was the day I quit smoking.

Kate Meinhardt Hi Kate, no, I've never smoked meth. Brett
Omg ...
I know right? That basically says that he's a snaggletooth.
0:15
uhhhh it says that his dentist fixed his teeth? lol
It says to me that if you lose your teeth you can just buy false teeth, problem solved
@christianfierro
This guy needs to see a dentist.
agreed
Where do you think he had his teeth pulled and the partial?
Which is a say
Well he has fake teeth so his smile is restored
Golum
Am I the only one that this stupid commercial just makes physically ill??? I feel the need to throw up every time it comes on. Darn near vomited all over the place the other day when it came on and I was eating something.,
He has gum disease from NOT Flossing and Brushing his teeth!! Ugh...My Great Aunt smoked all the way up to 101 years old and when she died, she had a full set of teeth!!
what does this say? it says Brett you should've taken care of your teeth by leaving that guys wife alone! ha! instead Brett blames it on cigarettes!
No he doesn't, he's saying it says don't smoke/quit.
Gross
I don't feel sympathetic for someone like Brett or any of these other former smokers in these campaigns. People know the dangers of smoking and yet a lot of them refuse to quit because they have the mentality of 'this can never happen to me.'
