“…Tobacco and alcohol have been established as risk factors for the development of such potentially malignant and malignant disorders of the oral mucosa (Jaber et al, 1999;Moreno-Lopez et al, 2000;Lee et al, 2003;Znaor et al, 2003;Saraswathi et al, 2006;Yen et al, 2007;Cebeci et al, 2009;Javed et al, 2010). In South India chewing betel quid/ paan (betel leaf enclosing sliced areca nut, catechu, lime and various other spices which may or may not contain tobacco) (Warnakulasuriya et al, 2002;Rani et al, 2003;Aruna et al, 2011) is a common habit but the evidence for cancer occurrence due to this habit without tobacco is limited (Znaor et al, 2003;Lee et al, 2005).…”

“…Gutka is a mixture of powdered tobacco, areca nut, and slaked lime (aqueous calcium hydroxide). Some other forms of smokeless tobacco products commonly used in the Indian subcontinent are khaini, zarda which are mixtures of powdered tobacco and slaked lime and mishri a powdered form of tobacco which is rubbed on the gums (Rani et al, 2003;Javed et al, 2010). According to a re-evaluation in 2004 by the International Agency for Research of Cancer both betel quid and areca nut have been considered to be Group 1 or 'carcinogenic to humans' (Jacob et al, 2004;Lee et al, 2005).…”

Introduction: The incidence of oral premalignant and malignant lesions is on the rise due to an increased number of people taking in tobacco and alcohol related habits. Material and Methods: 1028 patients with tobacco, alcohol and areca nut habits attending our Department of Oral Medicine and Radiology formed the study sample. An interviewer based questionnaire was used to record the habit details. All the patients were then examined clinically for the presence of lesions. Chi square and Fisher exact tests were used to assess the statistical significance of the study parameters. Results: Males had a higher prevalence and comprised 87.9% of the sample. The commonest habit in this study sample was smoking (39.2%) followed by smokeless tobacco use (28.1%). Out of the 1028 patients with habits 40% had no clinically detectable changes in their mucosa. Of the mucosal changes leukoplakia (14%) was the commonest. Conclusions: This study provided information about the habit trends in the patients visiting this institution. The study may serve as a useful tool in educating the patients about the deleterious effects of oral tobacco, alcohol and betel exposure.

“…In a recent study, Javed et al [21] showed that SRP reduces hyperglycemia and periodontal infl ammation in patients with prediabetes. Moreover, studies [22][23][24] have also shown that. besides cigarette smoking, other tobacco habits such as waterpipe smoking and smokeless tobacco chewing can also enhance periodontal infl ammation.…”

Abstract:Objective: The aim was to assess the eff ect of scaling and root planing (SRP) with and without adjunct use of an essential-oil-basedmouthwash (EOBM) on whole salivary immunoglobulin G (IgG) levels in patients with periodontal infl ammation. Methods: Fifty patients with periodontal infl ammation were included. Treatment wise, these patients were randomly divided into two groups. In group 1, patients underwent SRP and were instructed to rinse with 10 mL of an EOBM twice daily for 30 days, whereas those in group 2 underwent SRP and were instructed to rinse with 10 mL of water twice daily for 30 days. Whole saliva samples were collected at baseline and after 40 days of treatment. P-values < 0.05 were considered statistically signifi cant. Results: At baseline, whole salivary IgG levels were comparable among patients in groups 1 (60.5 ± 5.5 mg/dL) and 2 (57.3 ± 2.4 mg/dL). After 40 days of follow-up, there is a signifi cant decrease in whole salivary IgG levels among patients in group 1 (7.2 ± 2.4 mg/dL) as compared to those in group 2 (26.6 ± 4.6 mg/dL) (P < 0.001). Conclusions: SRP, when performed with adjunct use of an EOBM, is more eff ective in reducing whole salivary IgG levels as compared to when SRP is performed without adjunct use of an EOBM.

“…Therefore, chances of malignancy are many fold higher in chronic tobacco abusers. 14,15 Oral diseases related to tobacco use are relatively widespread and common in the Pakistani community but epidemiological data regarding maintenance of oral hygiene and suggested treatment is scarce. Further, no data is available on general population's awareness towards oral health and their oral habits.…”

Background: Oral diseases related to tobacco use are relatively widespread and common in the Pakistani community but epidemiological data regarding maintenance of oral hygiene and suggested treatment is scarce. Therefore, this study was conducted in an under developed district (Muzaffargarh) of Punjab, Pakistan to evaluate oral health status and to determine frequency of cytomorphological changes in buccal mucosa of habitual tobacco users. Methods: Oral examination of all the subjects was carried out using mouth mirrors and gauze under good illumination. Cytology samples were taken from buccal mucosa. The smears were later stained with Papanicolaou stain and microscopy was performed. All the cytological data was recorded in the respective proformas. Data was analysed using IBM SPSS software version 20. Descriptive statistical analysis was performed. A p value of ≤0.05 was considered significant. Results: When cross relations were studied among the demographics, addictive habits and cytological variables, soft drink usage was associated with epithelial atypia (p=0.05), marijuana usage was associated with inflammatory infiltrate on cytology (p=0.047) and snuff/niswar usage was associated with inflammatory atypia (p=0.048). No associations were found among the other studied variables. Conclusions: The results of cellular changes in the smears from subjects with addictive habits can be utilized as an educational and screening tool in cessation therapy. The results attained in this study proposed that tobacco addictive habits produce cellular modifications in clinically normal mucosa on exfoliation cytology.
