Can Meth Loosen The Glue On Capped Teeth?

i've been shooting meth off and on for 6 months (more on than off). my teeth are all capped (cosmetic). can meth loosen the glue that holds them on? Or the one temporary tooth i have in? and, you know how meth comes out your pores -- does it comes out via the inside of one's nose or mouth/gums?

no, but the teeth clenching associated with it surely can ! This is a common side effect and the reason why there is "meth teeth" even in people without dental implants/caps/etc.
