| description | Introduction
Investigations to explore the relationship between smoking and its
oral manifestations are important to clinicians. Among these oral manifestations,
periodontal diseases and dental caries have still a controversial association. This
study aims to analyze the effect of smoking on periodontal disease and caries and
their relevance to each other.
Methods
Data on demographic and clinical features were retrieved from 7028
patients. Smoking status was categorized as a smoker, non-smoker, former
smoker and passive smoker. Each patient received a diagnosis according to the
new classification system for periodontal disease, in which periodontal disease
is divides into stages (PS). The carries status was diagnosed by evaluating the
decayed, missing, and filled teeth (DMFT) index.
Results
Of the patients, 66.6% were non-smoker women, whereas 53.7 % of
passive smokers were women. Being a worker and having a Bachelor’s degree was
associated with a higher likelihood of getting diagnosed with periodontal disease
and caries in smokers. Smoking significantly influences periodontal disease severity
and DMFT values (p<0.001). This becomes more evident in former smokers by
showing the highest severe periodontal problems (PS3: 29.7% and PS4: 18.9%),
and the highest DMFT mean (16.4 ± 7.4) Accordingly, persons having high DMFT
had significantly the most severe periodontal disease, namely PS4 (p<0.05).
Conclusions
Smoking is associated with higher caries prevalence and more severe
periodontal disease, and DMFT tend to increase with the severity of periodontitis
in the same subjects. |
