Bruk av svensk snus er forbundet med økt risiko for kreft, høyt blodtrykk, økt dødelighet etter kreft og hjerte- og karsykdommer, økt risiko for psykose, overvekt, metabolsk syndrom – og (ved høyt forbruk) økt risiko for diabetes type 2. Snusbrukere som slutter etter
hjerteinfarkt, halverer risikoen for å dø i tiden etter infarktet. Bruk av snus under svangerskapet er skadelig for barnet. Den høye bruken av snus er derfor bekymringsfull.

The study showed that the average prevalence of MIH among children of 8 years in Helsinki was comparable to that reported elsewhere. The number of MIH-affected teeth at early mixed dentition predicts the affection of other permanent teeth over time, mainly that of permanent canines. An irrelevant number of children had MIH-affected second primary molars. Further screening of children with MIH-affected teeth is recommended to improve individually tailored early preventive and restorative dental care. In this way, an early intervention will facilitate management of further clinical dental problems of MIH-affected teeth and improve oral health-related quality of life of children with this condition.
