This article is a review of the work of domestic and foreign authors on the effect of smoking on periodontal tissues, the mechanism of action of nicotine on the microvasculature, hygiene and soft tissues of the oral cavity. A modern diagnostic method using the Florida Probe computer system is considered. A treatment plan is proposed for patients with inflammatory periodontal diseases, the etiological factor of which is exposure to nicotine.This article is a review of the work of domestic and foreign authors on the effect of smoking on periodontal tissues, the mechanism of action of nicotine on the microvasculature, hygiene and soft tissues of the oral cavity.

This study addresses the nature of morphological changes occurring in periodontal tissues through the development of gum recession in the experiment. Gingival recession was found to occur along with a decrease in epithelial thickness of the mucous membrane as well as a decreasing cross-sectional area of blood vessels, whereas the connective tissue featured fibrinoid swelling. Initial tissue ischemia in the affected area can have a negative effect on reparation. This should be borne in mind when planning a periodontal plastic surgery.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
