After Years Of Drug Use Charlie Came Down With Meth Mouth
Charlie says, "My Mouth Was So Screwed Up. Big Time. I've Messed My Teeth And My Life Up So Bad That It's As Bad As The Bubonic Plague/Black Death. Really! I Mean Man It's That Bad. No Joke!"Then Charlie goes on and states, "Roughly four years ago, I suddenly found myself in the throws [sic] of a seismic and debilitating three-day cluster migraine like headache. I was emergently hospitalized with what I believed to be a brain tumor or perhaps some unknown pathology. I was partially correct. Following a battery of endless tests, that included a hideous spinal tap, it was sadly and shockingly revealed to me that what I had come down with was meth mouth."
"At first under the brilliant and perfect care of my dentist as well as 'the' leading dental surgeon in the known universe, I began a rigorous and intensive treatment program. Not missing a beat, and without any drugs, or one shred of guidance, quickly my facial scars became undetectable. Like every other challenge in my life, again, I was victorious and kicking this disease’s ass, for the moment at least. I wish my story had ended there. Unfortunately, for my family and myself, it had only just begun."
"The personal disbelief, karmic confusion, shame and anger lead to a temporary yet abysmal decent again into none stop substance abuse and fathomless drinking. It was a suicide run. Problem was, I’d forgotten that I’m too tough for such a cowardly departure. Yet, despite this loathsome and horrific odyssey, I regained my composure and was vigilant with my anti-drug use program. My medical team could only shake their heads as each and every drug test that returned levels revealing a state free of drug use. Even though I might have been trying to kill myself through drug use and unprotected sex, one thing was radically evident; the drugs are not my friend."
"In and around this perplexing and difficult time, I dazedly chose (or hired) the companionship of unsavory and insipid types. Regardless of their salt-less reputations, I always lead with honesty when it came to my condition. Sadly, my truth soon became their treason, as a deluge of blackmail and extortion took center stage in this circus of deceit."
"To date, I have paid out countless millions to these desperate charlatans."
"Locked in a vacuum of fear, I chose to allow their threats and skullduggery to vastly deplete future assets from my children, while my “secret” sat entombed in their hives of folly. (or so I thought)"
Charlie In His Better Days On TV.
"News Flash: This ends today. I'm claiming back my freedom. No more drug use and unprotected sex! The scales of justice will swiftly and righteously rebalance themselves."
"In conclusion, I accept my situation not as a curse or scourge, but rather as an opportunity and a challenge. I've got a couple of gold teeth to replace the ones that I've lost to meth mouth and the women aren't around anymore. An opportunity to help others. A challenge to better myself. Every day, of every month, of every year, countless individuals go to work, man their stations, fulfill their professional obligations with a host of disabilities. Diseases, imperfections, hurdles, detours. These maladies range from Lupus to Cancer, from paralysis to blindness, from Diabetes to Obesity." "Treated, meth mouth to me is no different."
"My partying days are behind me. My philanthropic days are ahead of me."

After A Night Of Sex And Partying
Martin Sheen, Charlie's dad is standing publicly by his son's side after the 50-year-old actor announced that he has had meth mouth.
The elder Sheen took to the stage at the eighth annual CME Group's Global Financial Leadership Conference on Tuesday in Naples, Fla., where he opened up about Charlie Sheen's admission and praised his courage to come forward. "He had been leading up to this sort of story for several months, and we kept encouraging him to do it," said Sheen, according to a report by the Naples Daily News. "He kept backing away and backing away because it was like going to his own execution, I guess."
"It was the most difficult thing he'd ever done," noted Sheen, 75, going on to explain his son had reached a point of no turning back. "And he kind of sealed it when he called Matt Lauer last week and asked if he could go on."
But Sheen said the family didn't even know if the announcement would happen. "We didn't know until he walked on the set this morning that he was going to do it," said Sheen. "I saw him Saturday night, my wife and I went to see him, to make sure he knew we were behind him, and if he wanted me to go, I would have canceled this event. He said, no, this was his and his alone."
"When someone comes to themself, they have the moment of clarity, and they reveal their secrets — which all of us have — in public, it is a great sense of relief. It is a miraculous occasion," said Sheen, who has overcome his own struggles with addiction.
Watching his son open up to the world, however, proved extremely difficult. "This morning, as I watched him alone, reveal his deepest, darkest secret, I couldn't believe the level of courage I was witnessing, and that it was my son," he said, choking up. "I left him a message, and I said that if I had that much courage, I would change the world."
Unable to reach him later in the day, Sheen says he left his son another message: "That my favorite quote from Robert Kennedy was fulfilled with him today. Robert Kennedy once said, 'One heart with courage is a majority.'"
He went on to urge people to realize that addiction is a disease. "The effort to find the transcendence in our humanity, our brokenness, to accept the brokenness and to rise with it, without the drug, is what we call recovery. And I hope that this day is the first day of the rest of Charlie's life as a free man."
Charlie says his dentist wants us to know these facts about meth mouth:
Here are some reasons that drug induced dental decay can develop:
Cracked teeth: One of the signs of drug induced dental decay is cracked teeth. This happens when drug users grind and clench their teeth. This can happen both while under the influence of the drug and in the aftermath while experience withdrawal symptoms.
Dry mouth: Xerostomia, which is known more commonly as dry mouth, results when there is a reduction in the saliva that is formed. Saliva provides natural protection for teeth and gums. The use of drugs reduces the production of saliva, and that means that there is lower protection. This condition can be exacerbated by the fact that many drug users sometimes sleep for more than 24 hours at time - often with the mouth open.
Indifference to oral hygiene: One of the hallmarks of an addiction is an increasing indifference to matters of hygiene. This includes oral hygiene. Many drug users do not bother to brush or floss their teeth, or eat foods that can help strengthen and protect them. This leads to a situation in which the mouth is vulnerable to weak teeth, gum disease and other problems.
It is important to note that the problem of drug induced dental decay can be enhanced by tobacco use, consuming sugary drinks, and the fact that drug users rarely eat (many drugs are appetite suppressants), meaning that there is less of a change for saliva to be produced and used in the mouth.

Charlie's says he's HIV Positive!
"It’s a hard three letters to absorb," Sheen said. "It’s a turning point in one’s life."
The actor said he had paid "millions" to unnamed individuals who had threatened to expose his HIV-positive status: "We’re talking about shakedowns." Asked by Lauer if he was still paying those people, Sheen replied, "Not after today, I’m not. … I think I release myself from this prison today."
"What people forget is that’s money they’re taking from my children," Sheen added. "They think it’s just me, but I’ve got five kids and a granddaughter."
Sheen returned for another segment, accompanied by his doctor, Robert Huizenga, who confirmed that Sheen is healthy and that there’s "an undetectable amount of the virus in his blood," as Lauer called it.
"He was immediately put on treatment, strong antiviral drugs, which have suppressed the virus … to the point that he's absolutely healthy from that vantage," Huizenga said. "And my biggest concern with Charlie as a patient is substance abuse and depression from the disease more than what the HIV virus could do in terms of shortening his life, because it’s not going to."
Update:
There's a new woman in Charlie Sheen's life!
The 51-year-old actor stepped out with his girlfriend, Jules, in Santa Monica, California, on Thursday night, for his daughter, Lola's,12th birthday dinner.
"This is my girlfriend," Sheen told paparazzi outside the restaurant. "No one's gotten a photo of it yet."
We're told that despite just being photographed, the two have been linked for over a year.
And:
Charlie Sheen is said to be embracing a vegan diet in a bid to improve his health.
The Anger Management star - who revealed in 2015 he is HIV-positive - has been following the health plan for the past two weeks as part of a fitness drive with new girlfriend, Julia Stambler.
Sources told TMZ that the 51-year-old actor has been waking up early to go swimming and do yoga, and he's been eating plenty of rice and veggie burgers, and washing those down with coconut water coffee.
The former Two and a Half Men star's vegan diet isn't the first time he's been on a health kick.
In June 2016, the actor admitted he was concentrating on working out and eating better. He said at the time: 'Now it's exercise, diet. I don't go on benders, don't drink as much.
'It was a combination of a lot of self-loathing, a lot of shame that was behind it. I just wanted to keep myself divorced from reality. I just woke up one day and said, "I deserve better".'
Charlie previously claimed he's been off hard drugs for a year and rarely touches alcohol nowadays, but recently admitted he has been suffering with 'borderline dementia' due to the cocktails of medication he has to take to manage HIV.
He revealed: '[The drugs] kept me suppressed and alive, but I struggled with a constant migraine and at times, borderline dementia.'
But the star also insisted he is beginning to feel like his old self again.
Per Charlie Concerning Meth And Meth Mouth:
Meth does not directly impact the teeth. It destroys the gums-- which then causes the teeth to rot and fall out.
Says Charlie, "The damage that meth does to the gums is inevitable and irreversible. It has nothing to do with dental hygiene. The meth itself completely messes with the chemistry of the mouth, causing the inevitable meth mouth. In some people, the damage is immediate and the progress of gum disease is fast-- weeks or months after a few trysts with meth, the gums start rotting and teeth fall out. The bad breath of meth users is gum tissue decaying in the mouth."
Continues Charlie, "There are all sorts of drugs that have anti-collanergic effects (cause "dry mouth"), and these drugs can also cause gum disease. Among these are allergy meds and antidepressants, as well as others. Cocaine, incidentally, falls into this category of drugs. This sort of gum disease can be impeded and halted once it is detected. This is not true of meth. The best dental hygiene in the world will neither slow nor stop meth mouth. Once the meth alters the chemistry of the mouth, eventual loss of gums and all teeth is inevitable."
Charlie then mentioned, "In some people, the progress is relatively slow; in others it can be insanely fast".
Again he continues, "Meth mouth is NOT contingent upon how much meth you use, nor is it contingent upon how many times you use meth. There are thousands of people who have used meth only once or twice and still lost all of their teeth a few months later."
"I am not a dentist. Nor do I have any background in any of the medical sciences. But what I have stated can be easily confirmed by anybody with 40 strokes on their keyboard-- or with a conversation with a good dentist", says Charlie.
Something To Consider:
Throughout his youth, Charlie Sheen used cocaine as his drug of choice. Back then Charlie never had severe gum problems. Reports are that a few years ago, after having been clean for a while, he relapsed. Soon after he started to use meth, his gums were ruined and his teeth began falling out. He has since stopped using meth.
