Tobacco use has a major public health concern that results in significant morbidity and mortality. Tobacco use has an injurious effect on oral health such as oral cancer and potentially malignant disorders like , oral fibrosis. Tobacco use has been found to have a strong, chronic and dose dependent effect on periodontal tissues due to poor oral hygiene caused by increased deposit of debris and calculus among tobacco users. This study aimed to find the association between oral hygiene status and tobacco dependence. A retrospective study was conducted using the case records of patients in University hospital. Data on tobacco dependence and oral hygiene status from 150 patient records were collected and for association. Descriptive statistics and chi-square association was done. The mean age of patients in the records was 35 ± 12.44 years and males (14%) had severe tobacco dependence. The mean Oral Hygiene Index Simplified (OHIS) score was found to be 2.03 ± 1.009 which is interpreted as fair. There was no statistically significant association between oral hygiene status and tobacco dependence (p= 0.157). Tobacco dependence has no role in the oral hygiene status of an individual.

“…Effective self-care oral hygiene practices such as toothbrushing and the use of interdental cleaning are the key means of preventing and controlling periodontal diseases. [ 8 ] The prevalence of tooth pain or sensitivity in the present study was high (50.2%). The finding is in accordance with the study by Patil et al ., the mechanism through which tobacco causes tooth wear lesion may be through local frictional and vascular effects.…”

Introduction: The use of tobacco in all forms is increasing day by day globally causing its ill effects on oral as well as overall health of the people and affecting their sense of well-being and quality of life. Aim and Objectives: The present study was done to investigate among patients the awareness of tobacco use and its ill effects on oral health. Materials and Methods: This descriptive, cross-sectional study was conducted at Dr. RRK Dental College and Hospital, Akola. A total of 297 patients were asked using a self-structured questionnaire. Results: Out of a total of 297 patients participating in the study, 48 (16.2%) were female and 248 (83.8%) were male. About 81.7% of the patients were aware that heart problems can be one of the ill effects of tobacco chewing, while 3.7% were still not sure about it. Conclusions: We found that patients had a knowledge about the impact of tobacco on oral health.

“…Some studies state that the association between tobacco consumption and depression is well known and estimate that around 60% of smokers (male and female) have a history of clinical depression; and that this condition seems to be strongly associated with high levels of tobacco consumption (Nunes, 2006). Another important point is the relation between smoking and premature skin aging Suehara et al, 2006), which may produce low self-esteem in the individual, especially when it occurs on the face and even more so when associated with a loss of dental aesthetics because of diverse dental problems caused by tobacco use (Pereira et al, 2014;Dietrich et al, 2007;Ahsan et al, 2020), mainly due to the fact that both facial esthetics and a healthy smile appearance are considered important aspects in social and cultural relations today.…”

“…Tobacco is also associated with the occurrence of deleterious effects on oral health. Several previous studies demonstrate that smokers have a higher risk of tooth loss (Pereira et al, 2014;Dietrich et al, 2007), higher prevalence of periodontal diseases, dental caries and leukoplasia (Ahsan et al, 2020;Santos et al, 2022) as well as a higher risk of developing oral squamous cell carcinoma (Alves et al, 2017;Lopes et al, 2021). On the other hand, the literature is scarce on a possible impact of smoking on oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) (Bakri et al, 2018;Sagtani et al, 2020).…”

The aim of this study was to assess smoking impact on oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL). A cross-sectional study was carried out with smokers and non-smokers patients scheduled at a Faculty of Dentistry in Brazil. Sociodemographic data were collected and oral problems impact on quality of life were assessed through “Oral Health Impact Profile-14” (OHIP-14) questionnaire. The World Health Organization criteria were used to assess dental caries and periodontal disease. Data analysis was performed by descriptive and inferential statistics. Two hundred and seven individuals participated in the study, 112 non-smokers and 95 smokers. Most smokers were males (54.25%), the average smoking time was 24.74 ± 14.84 years and 54.72% of them reported smoking more than 11 cigarettes/day. Smokers scored higher values in OHIP-14 (p = 0.026) and in dimensions “functional limitation” (p < 0.001), “psychological discomfort” (p = 0.024) and “psychological disability” (p = 0.047). In addition, smokers had higher percentages of sextants with periodontal pockets (p < 0.001) and moderate to advanced attachment loss (p = 0.029). In short, smokers suffered a greater impact on OHRQoL, in addition to a worse periodontal condition compared to non-smokers.
