Dear user, tobacco chewing is deadly for health in all the ways. Talking about your problem of reduced mouth opening, this is one of the effect of tobacco chewing only. You need to completely stop with tobacco chewing firstly. After that start doing some mouth opening and closing exercises by slowly opening your mouth upto the maximum limit you can and then slowly closing it. Also you can start with warm water and salt gargles 5-6 times daily as this will relax your mouth muscles. Start consuming more of raw vegetables and fruits.

Hello Lybrate user, prolonged tobacco chewing habit leads to precancerous lesions of the oral mucosa. OSMF being one of them in which the movability of the oral tissues is reduced, there is loss of flexibility and reduced opening of the mouth. No braces won't help you in such situations for jaw opening. You need to stop tobacco consumption, spicy food immediately and visit a dentist for further assistance.
