J Periodontol 2020; 92:1126-1135. [PMID: 33251598 DOI: 10.1002/jper.20-0564] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/23/2020] [Revised: 10/30/2020] [Accepted: 11/17/2021] [Indexed: 11/09/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Data visualization techniques were used to ascertain (1) site-specific effects of cigarette smoking on the periodontium compared to never-smokers; (2) patterns of site-specific effects by age among current and never-smokers using contour maps. METHODS Data from 10,713 dentate participants aged ≥30 years in NHANES 2009-2014 were used. Pocket depth (PD) and clinical attachment level (CAL) for six sites/tooth were ascertained by smoking status and plotted using contour maps to identify new patterns. RESULTS In the overall sample, 19% (n = 2015) were current smokers and 56% (n = 6013) were never-smokers. Contour maps of the overall sample showed teeth/sites most affected with mean PD > 2.1 mm were molars (2,3,15,18,19,30,31) in mesio-lingual (ML) and disto-lingual (DL) sites. Most affected sites for current smokers were interproximal sites of most posterior teeth. Among never-smokers, fewer teeth/sites were affected with PD > 2.1 mm, whereas among smokers, number of affected teeth/sites increased with age. Overall, teeth/sites most affected with mean CAL≥2.1 mm were noted in 2,3(ML), 3(DL), 14(DF, DL), 15(MF, ML), 18(ML), 19(DL, ML), and 30-31(ML, DL) with upper anterior teeth least affected. Among current smokers, several teeth/sites were affected (CAL≥2.1 mm): 2,3(all six sites), 4(ML, DL), 9(ML), 11-21(DL), 13-18(DF, ML, MIL, DL), 19-20(DF, ML, MIL), 14-18(MIF), 21(MIF, ML, DL), 22(MF), 23-27(MIL), 24-26(MIL, MF, DF in 26), 27(MF), 28(MF, ML, DL), 29-31(all 6 sites except MIF 30,31). As age increased, more teeth/sites were affected among smokers and by the 5th decade nearly all teeth/sites had CAL≥2.0 mm. CONCLUSIONS Contour mapping identifies patterns and dramatically visualizes the substantial periodontal site-specific differences. Current smokers had more affected teeth and/or periodontal sites with a different contour pattern than never-smokers.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Epidemiological studies have shown a close relationship between smoking and dental caries. Bacteria are one of the essential factors of caries formation. The imbalance of cariogenic bacteria and commensal bacteria in dental plaque results in higher production of acid that can corrode dental hard tissue. The aim of our review is to summarize the effect of smoking on caries-related bacteria. METHODS English articles available in Pubmed and ScienceDirect databases and published before December 2018 were searched. A variety of evidence was collected including not only the influence of cigarette products on bacteria strains in vitro but also their effect on bacterial composition in saliva and dental plaque in vivo. We particularly emphasize the mechanisms by which nicotine acts on oral bacteria. RESULTS The components of cigarettes promote the growth of cariogenic microorganisms. The mechanisms of how nicotine enhances Streptococcus mutans, Lactobacilli, Streptococcus gordonii, Actinomyces and Candida albicans are described separately in detail. The commensal bacteria, Streptococcus sanguinis, show less competitive capability in the presence of nicotine. Smoking influences saliva by lowering the buffer capability, altering its chemical agent and bacterial components, and therefore promotes the formation of a caries-susceptible environment. CONCLUSIONS Cigarette smoking and nicotine exposure promote the cariogenic activity of oral microorganisms and the formation of a caries-susceptible environment. This suggests that smokers should quit smoking, amongst other health reasons, also for their oral health.

Abstract
The objectives of this study were to evaluate the influence of cigarette smoking on gingival bleeding and serum concentrations of cotinine, haptoglobin, and alpha 1-antitrypsin in Malaysian smokers. A total of 197 male smokers and nonsmokers were recruited for this study. Plaque index, bleeding on probing (BOP), and levels of serum cotinine, haptoglobin, and alpha 1-antitrypsin were evaluated. The data were analyzed using SPSS version 20.0, with the significance level set at α ≤ 0.05. Linear regression analyses were performed. The mean cigarette consumption per day was 13.39 ± 5.75 cigarettes; the mean duration was 16.03 ± 8.78 years. Relatively low BOP values (26.05 ± 1.48) and moderate plaque indexes (51.35 ± 11.27) were found. The levels of serum cotinine (106.9 ± 30.71 ng/dL), haptoglobin (76.04 ± 52.48 mg/dL), and alpha 1-antitrypsin (141.90 ± 18.40 mg/dL) were significantly higher in smokers compared to non-smokers. Multiple logistic regression models for all variables and smokers demonstrated observed differences between BOP, the number of cigarettes per day, and duration of smoking, while serum cotinine, haptoglobin and alpha-1 antitrypsin levels showed no significant differences. Duration of smoking (years) and the cotinine level in serum showed a significant correlation with plaque index. The present analysis demonstrated that the duration of smoking in years, but not the number of cigarettes smoked per day, was associated with reduced gingival bleeding in smokers.

Abstract
A case-control study was done to assess the influence of smoking on clinical, microbiological, and histopathological parameters. Methods. Two hundred dentate male patients (100 smokers and 100 nonsmokers) ranging between 25 and 50 years were enrolled in the study. Periodontal parameters were recorded. Plaque samples were collected for microbial analysis for BANA test. Gingival biopsies were obtained from selected site for assessing histopathological changes. Results. Both groups showed almost similar plaque levels (P=0.258), but smokers had reduced gingival (0.62 ± 0.31) and bleeding indices (28.53 ± 17.52) and an increased calculus index (1.62 ± 0.36). Smokers had an increased probing depth of 4-7 mm (P=0.009) and overall increased CAL. No difference in microbiota was found between the two groups. Histopathologically smokers showed a decreased blood vessel density (8.84 ± 0.96) and inflammatory cells (52.00 ± 9.79). Conclusions. It is quite possible that many of the pathogenic mechanisms involved in tissue degradation in periodontitis in smokers could be quite different from those in nonsmokers.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Poor oral hygiene has been frequently suggested as a predisposing factor for oral candidal colonization, but the convincing evidence is lacking. OBJECTIVE To assess and compare oral candidal colonization, both quantitatively and qualitatively, in groups of healthy dentate subjects with different levels of oral hygiene as determined by the plaque index (PI) and gingival index (GI) scores. METHODS The concentrated oral rinse technique was used to isolate Candida species from 149 healthy dentate subjects. Candida species were cultured on Sabouraud's dextrose agar plates and identified by germ-tube test and the automated Vitek(R) system biochemical yeast card. According to the PI and GI scores, subjects were divided into different groups of oral hygiene level. RESULTS Candida species were isolated from 86 (57.7%) subjects. The prevalence of candidal carriage increased significantly as a function of age (P = 0.023), but was comparable between males and females (58.7% and 56.7% respectively; P = 0.87). Oral candidal carriage rate and density were not affected by the levels of dental plaque or gingival condition. The prevalence of oral candididal carriage was significantly higher in the subjects who were not using dental floss compared with those who were using dental floss (P = 0.032). CONCLUSION Oral hygiene status, as determined by the PI and the GI scores per se, does not affect oral candidal colonization in healthy dentate subjects.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Smoking is an independent risk factor for periodontal disease and tooth loss. STATE OF THE ART Smoking impairs inflammatory and immune responses to periodontal pathogens, and exerts both systemic and local effects. Periodontal disease is increased both in prevalence and severity in smokers. Smoking is a predisposing factor to acute necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis and is associated with an increased rate of periodontal disease in terms of pocket formation and attachment loss, as well as alveolar bone loss. Cigar, pipe, water-pipe and cannabis smoking have similar adverse effects on periodontal health as cigarette smoking. Passive smoking is also an independent periodontal disease risk factor. Smokeless tobacco is associated with localized periodontal disease. Smokers respond less favourably to both non-surgical and surgical treatments and have higher failure rates and complications following dental implantation. Smoking cessation may halt the disease progression and improve the outcome of periodontal treatment. CONCLUSION Smoking cessation counselling should be an integral part of periodontal therapy and prevention.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Our recent studies suggest, that elevated calcium concentration of saliva is characteristic of periodontitis. In this study we analyzed the effect of smoking on salivary calcium and bone density by comparing the level of salivary calcium and the ultrasound scale of bone density of heavy smokers to those of non-smokers. DESIGN Salivary samples were collected from 603 women (50-62 years) participating in a pre-screen referral program for osteoporosis. Out of this group a total of 577 were accepted for the present study. General health, medications and tobacco smoking were recorded. The group included 487 non-smokers, 37 moderate smokers (1-10 cigarettes per day) and 53 heavy smokers (>10 cigarettes per day). Bone density was measured at the right heel by the quantitative ultrasound technique. Calcium and phosphate concentrations of saliva were measured and expressed as microg/ml of saliva. RESULTS The ultrasonographic variables of the heel, broadband ultrasound attenuation (BUA), speed of sound (SOS) and T-score (a standard deviation unit from mean values of healthy young adults) of heavy smokers were significantly lower than those of women who did not smoke (P = 0.007, 0.014 and 0.011, respectively). Salivary calcium concentration of heavy smokers 70.5 (14.6) microg/ml was higher than that of non-smokers 64.0 (14.1) microg/ml (P = 0.001). There were no significant differences in salivary phosphate level or in the salivary flow rate between heavy smokers and non-smokers. CONCLUSIONS Heavy smokers seem to have lower bone mineral density and higher salivary calcium than their non-smoking counterparts. We suggest that the high salivary calcium concentration of smokers is in connection with skeletal calcium disturbances.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cigarette smoking is a significant risk factor in the pathogenesis of periodontal disease, able to influence both the subgingival microbiota and host responses. AIM The aim of the present study was to determine the influence of smoking on the amount of IL-1beta, IL-4 and IL-8 in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) during experimental gingivitis in humans. MATERIAL AND METHODS Twenty-two healthy subjects, 10 smokers and 12 non-smokers, participated in the study. After professional cleaning, they performed optimal hygiene to reach perfect clinical gingival health. Oral hygiene measures were ceased for a period of 10 days. Clinical indices, including plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), probing pocket depth (PPD) and bleeding on probing (BOP), were assessed 2 days before (day -2), at the beginning (day 0) and at the end of the experimental gingivitis period (day 10). At the same time, GCF was collected from 12 sites in each patient, by means of durapore filter membranes. Total amounts of IL-1beta, IL-4 and IL-8 were determined by enzyme-linked immunoadsorbent assay. RESULTS Clinical data revealed that both smokers and non-smokers showed an increase in PI, GI and BOP scores during the experiment. Although no differences were noted with regard to PI at day 10, the GI and BOP were significantly less pronounced in smokers than non-smokers (p < 0.005). Non-smokers showed higher total amounts of IL-4 but lower amounts of IL-8 than smokers, throughout the experiment. Total amounts of IL-1beta and IL-8 increased significantly during plaque accumulation in both groups. IL-4 remained stable for the smoker group and decreased for the non-smoker group. CONCLUSIONS The present results indicate that smoking interferes with cytokine production. When performing studies regarding the pathogenesis of periodontitis, the smoking status of the participants needs to be taken into consideration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS Smokers with persistent periodontitis may have granulocytes with impaired function. This study aimed to determine the levels of granulocyte elastase, matrix metalloproteinase-8 (MMP-8) and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) in smokers and non-smokers with persistent periodontitis. METHODS We analyzed GCF from 70 matched sites in 29 periodontitis and 6 gingivitis sites in 34 subjects, 17 smokers, and 17 non-smokers. We also analyzed separately GCF from 28 of these subjects, 14 smokers and 14 non-smokers in 14 matched periodontitis sites. The following measurements were made: elastase complexed to alpha1-antitrypsin (EA-alpha1AT) and MMP-8 with ELISA, functional elastase with a chromogenic substrate, and PGE2 with radioimmunoassay (125I RIA). The significance of the findings was determined with Mann-Whitney test. RESULTS In the 29 matched periodontitis sites, smokers had significantly more functional elastase (p<0.005) and more EA-alpha1AT (p<0.05) than non-smokers. In the 14 matched periodontitis sites in 14 smokers and 14 non-smokers, the former had significantly more functional elastase than the latter (p<0.001). A significant correlation was found between EA-alpha1AT and MMP-8 in smokers (p<0.05) and non-smokers (p<0.001) and a positive correlation between levels of functional elastase and MMP-8 in non-smokers (r2=0.98; p<0.001). CONCLUSIONS Granulocyte function seems to be impaired in smokers with persistent periodontitis. The cells react to the bacterial challenge by releasing serine proteases, which reflect the degradation of connective tissue. The risk of progression of the disease is therefore higher in smokers with persistent periodontitis than in non-smokers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND, AIMS The primary purpose of this study was to determine the association of salivary and gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) cotinine levels with periodontal disease status in smokers and non-smokers. METHODS 147 male smokers and 30 male non-smokers were included in the current longitudinal study. The 177 individuals were part of a group of 200 subjects (89%) seen 10 years previously for a baseline survey. Oral hygiene indices, probing depth and attachment loss were recorded. Salivary and GCF cotinine levels of 58 smokers were determined by means of ELISA. RESULTS Results indicated that no significant difference was found in subjects who smoked, when compared to subjects who did not smoke with respect to plaque accumulation and calculus deposits. Smokers, however, had fewer gingival bleeding sites. Cigarette smoking was associated with a greater increase in probing depth and attachment loss, as well as greater tooth loss at an earlier age. There was greater tooth loss in smokers than non-smokers (p < 0.001). 11 smokers became edentulous, while only 1 non-smoker lost all his teeth within 10 years. The degree of periodontal tissue breakdown was different in each age group with greater periodontal deterioration as age increased. All smokers had detectable salivary and GCF cotinine. Mean GCF cotinine was about 4x higher than mean salivary cotinine levels. Individuals who smoked > or = 20 pack years when compared to <20 pack years, had significantly higher saliva and GCF cotinine levels (p < or = 0.05). CONCLUSION Neither salivary cotinine nor GCF cotinine was significantly correlated with probing depth, attachment loss and tooth loss (p > 0.05).

Abstract
Cigarette smoking is a risk factor for several diseases, and recent evidence strongly suggests an adverse effect on periodontal health. Nevertheless, the nature of the relationship between smoking and periodontal disease is not clear. Smoking causes defects in neutrophil function, impairs inflammatory and immune responses to periodontal pathogens, and exerts both systemic and local effects. Smoking is associated with an increased rate of periodontal disease in terms of alveolar bone loss and attachment loss, as well as pocket formation. Nicotine, the major component of cigarette smoke, may weaken host defenses to the bacterial invasion induced by plaque.

Abstract
Psychological disturbances may lead patients to neglect oral hygiene. This study investigated whether a number of psychosocial factors (depression, state and trait anxiety, total and average perceived stress, and loneliness) could predict dental plaque levels in patients with adult onset rapidly progressive periodontitis (RPP) and routine chronic adult periodontitis (RCAP), before periodontal treatment. It was also examined whether RPP and RCAP patients differed on plaque and smoking. Plaque was scored in a sample of 6 teeth in each of 80 subjects, 40 with RPP, 40 with RCAP, before psychosocial questionnaire completion. Multiple regression was performed between plaque as the dependent and psychosocial factors, gender, education, form of periodontitis and smoking as independent variables. Only gender contributed significantly to prediction of plaque, t=-2.70, p=0.01, partial regression coefficient -0.37, 95% CI: -0.64 to -0.10, indicating that plaque was on average 0.37 lower for females than males, after adjusting for the other predictor variables. It was confirmed that RPP and RCAP patients did not differ significantly on plaque, univariate t-test(69.99)= 0.65, p=0.13. However, RPP patients smoked significantly more than RCAP patients t(69.72)=2.36, p=0.02. There was also a marginally significant correlation between depression and smoking, r=0.16, p=0.07. One possible reason advanced for the lack of an association between psychosocial factors and plaque, and the absence of a difference in plaque between RPP and RCAP patients is the fact that the patients involved in the present study were seen as secondary referrals. The gender difference in plaque levels and the greater incidence of smoking in RPP patients may be of significance in planning interventions with patients with periodontitis.

Abstract
The compliance with an oral hygiene intervention program and its effect on oral cleanliness and gingivitis was studied in smokers and non-smokers. The study group represented patients with regular dental attendance. It comprised 68 patients 21-60 yr of age, including 28 habitual smokers. The program included toothbrushing with an electric toothbrush for 12 months. Oral cleanliness was evaluated according to a percentage plaque index and gingivitis according to the percentage of bleeding sites. The compliance with the oral hygiene program was very high among smokers and non-smokers. Plaque index at baseline was very similar in smokers and non-smokers and remained so during the course of the investigation. Following the introduction of the oral hygiene program, plaque index decreased in both groups, and there were no statistically significant differences between the two groups. In spite of the similarity in plaque index, gingival bleeding was significantly lower in smokers than non-smokers. The results suggest that smokers and non-smokers do not differ with respect to habitual oral hygiene or compliance with hygiene programs. In smokers, however, the clinical gingivitis expression in response to plaque is suppressed.

Abstract
This paper reports the findings of an experimental gingivitis study conducted in smokers and non-smokers. 33 volunteers were examined and underwent prophylaxis during a period of 4 weeks. 28 subjects who showed a plaque index less than 0.20 on all prophylaxis occasions were permitted to continue in the study. Subjects then had their gingival status recorded, had their teeth polished and were requested to abstain from all oral hygiene measures for the following 21 days. After 5 days, 10 days and 21 days, plaque and gingival status were recorded using the criteria of the plaque index and gingival index. After the examination on day 21, the teeth were polished and oral hygiene was re-instituted. Following 2 weeks of supervised oral hygiene, recordings of plaque and gingival status were performed. At the initial examination, there was no difference between the clinical assessment of plaque and gingival status in smokers and non-smokers. Similar amounts of plaque accumulated in the 2 groups during the period of no oral hygiene, but smokers exhibited less gingival inflammation assessed clinically than non-smokers. This difference occurred as a result of an apparently lowered incidence rate and a markedly higher recovery rate in smokers compared to non-smokers. These findings may indicate that smokers for reasons yet unknown have a reduced capacity to mount and maintain an effective defense reaction to a given plaque challenge.

Abstract
We have surveyed the health promotion efforts of dentists and dental hygienists in general dental practice in Chittenden County, Vermont, in relation to smoking. The response rate was 61 percent. Smoking issues were addressed by 76 percent of dentists and 81 percent of dental hygienists in approximately one quarter of their smoking patients. Although the majority of both dentists and dental hygienists advised their patients to change their smoking behavior, their advice was usually to cut down rather than to quit. Most of the respondents--78 percent of dentists and 93 percent of dental hygienists--considered it appropriate to give advice about smoking during visits for routine dental care and 68 percent and 89 percent, respectively, were willing to learn brief methods of advising their patients about smoking. Experience with giving advice about smoking and agreement that it was appropriate to give such advice were both strongly related to willingness to learn brief methods of giving such advice. In individual dental practices, there were virtually no correlations between the dentist's and the dental hygienist's behaviors as far as the proportion of patients from whom a smoking history was taken, the proportion of smokers advised about smoking, the content of the advice, or the nature of the advice. Only nine percent of dentists and 11 percent of dental hygienists were current smokers.

Abstract
The literature related to smoking and periodontal disease is reviewed. The effects of smoking on oral hygiene, gingivitis, necrotizing gingivitis, periodontitis, bacteria and the host's response are presented. From this review it is apparent that while the relationship between smoking and periodontal disease needs further study, smoking is detrimental to periodontal health as it worsens the oral hygiene status and depresses the host's defense posture.
