Hi,

She will need a thorough dental check up before it can be pin-pointed what is wrong with her teeth. It can be anything, ranging from dental caries to even cancer. In my opinion, you should let her know that smoking hastens the appearance of wrinkles on face and is generally bad for one's looks. This may help motivate her to quit smoking.

Best wishes.
