Explanation:

Methamphetamine use is associated with significant weight - loss due to increased metabolism and decreased appetite. It also causes "meth mouth," which is extensive tooth decay due to dry mouth, acidic substances in the drug, and poor oral hygiene from drug - using behavior. Ketamine, MDMA, and heroin do not typically present with such characteristic tooth decay and drastic weight - loss patterns as prominently as methamphetamine.
