switching sides

[initb2009]

I have been snusing for about five or 6 months and have never switched up where I put the portions. Do any of you move it around to different places? and also, how why do some people switch the sides where they put their snus at?

I always switch sides with dip and snus. Not only sides, but top and bottom. I think I move counter-clockwise. Left lower is my sweet spot. Next time, right lower, then right upper, and so on. But I only use los, not portions. It keeps you from developing any lesions and helps to lessen gum recession. 9 out of 10 dentists recommend it.

I always switch sides.

I start with the left top first one of the dat and every one after that goes back and forth.

It keeps you from developing a tender area or lesions. I had a little pain in both sides yesterday. But I think it was because of the monster prillas I was shoving up there all day lol.

I switch sides each time (upper left and upper right). Just gives the gums a bit of rest.

I swap sides on my portions, but only use upper left for lös.

Dip always goes bottom left. I've never tried to swap sides with dip. Probably should though.

That was my first thought too, or political.

I alternate with every portion I put in. I can always feel which side the last one was on (as I chain snus) so I just stick it on the other side.

I only switch if my gums get sore, which happens very rarely or if I am using very salty snus that causes pickling. Otherwise I favor the left side.

I always switch sides, upper left first, then to the right, and if I'm feeling like both sides are starting to get a bit tender I will put it right in the middle if I don't care about digression. When I dipped I tried to switch sides, but I had a hard time keeping it in my bottom right lip, just didn't feel comfortable.

Interesting. It seems so far that most people prefer to use the left side first, and then rotate it around the rest of the day. I would say it's because maybe most people are right handed, but I'm left handed (well, slightly ambidextrous) and also prefer the left side.

[muddyfunkstar]

I tend to alternate left and right, not for every portion, but as people have already said, just to give the gum a rest. I seem to favour one side for a day then need to switch the next day.

I allways keep it upper right.. Never alternate.. I've tried the left but it feels really akward.

[WickedKitchen]

Yep...I'm a switch hitter too. I always start the day on the top left and alternate sides. I did this with dip too when I dipped, but the dip always went in the bottom. I keep the snus up top. I'm a lefty too...not sure that matters.

I prefer top right with portions, but switch to the left the next time, unless I want to be discreet. It seems more discreet when I use top right than top left, for some reason.

Another switcher here, Funny I am the reverse of this..... prefer top left with portions, but switch to the right the next time, unless I want to be discreet. It seems more discreet when I use top left than top right.... I use some pretty strong sterks and extra sterks and whites and doing this too much on one side takes it's toll on my lip rather than my gums, maybe because I squeeze my lip out of habit... I also fold some portions and insert causing my lip to bulge to much...
