Yes..You do...Please do regular check ups with immediate consultation Incase of any growth or white plaque in your mouth..tobacco can also increase risk of lung,esophagus and larynx. No treatment other than screening. Research has suggested Vitamin A, but not proven to prevent it, once treatment with the vitamin is stopped. The longer the lag period between stoppage of habit and your present day, the lesser the chances..

It is good that you are abstaining. Though your risk does not reduce at 3 months, it will progressively reduce further. Keep it up.
