In dip, or smokeless tobacco, the main irritant that can cut or damage the lip is the coarse texture of the tobacco itself, along with the presence of various chemicals and additives. When placed between the lip and gum, these particles can cause abrasions or sores. Additionally, the nicotine and other chemicals can lead to inflammation, further exacerbating any cuts or irritation. Regular use can increase the risk of oral health issues, including gum disease and oral lesions.
