Hello,
Welcome to Healthcare Magic.
If you are chain smokers, than easily identified by any doctor.
First by your appearance, then by your teeth depositions, then by your mouth opening very low and you can't insert even two fingers called finger test.
And also by examining your finger space and marks on it.
But if you are often smoker, then very difficult to find out.
So don't worry but quit smoking because it causes many health hazards including cancers.
Hope this will help you.
Thanks for contacting us.
Take care...
