Background: To assess the effect of smoking on lip and gingival pigmentation and also to assess the relationship of pigmentation with periodontal parameters. Materials and Methods: 109 smokers and an equal number of control subjects who were nonsmokers in the age range of 35 – 44 years comprised the study sample. All the participants were assessed for pigmentation on lip and gingiva and a total periodontal status examination was done with measurements on gingival bleeding, probing depth and…

Clinical and microbiological effect of scaling and root planing in smoker and non-smoker chronic and aggressive periodontitis patients.

The inferior improvement in PD following therapy for smokers may reflect the systemic effects of smoking on the host response and the healing process, and the lesser reduction in microflora and greater post-therapy prevalence of organisms might reflect the deeper pockets seen in smokers and poorer clearance of the organisms.
