Selected Population-based Oral Health Assessment Following Usage of E-Cigarettes and Combustible Cigarettes
Purpose:
To compare oral health following e-cigarette and cigarette use in a Chinese male population.
Materials And Methods:
In this study, we selected 83 adult Chinese males aged between 18-35 years of age, including 31 regular traditional cigarette smokers, 20 regular e-cigarette users, and 32 never-smokers and never-vapers. Their clinical periodontal indicators (bleeding on probing, probing depth, clinical attachment loss) and salivary levels of interleukin (IL)-6, IL-8, IL-1β and cotinine were measured and compared.
Results:
In this selected population, traditional cigarette smokers (CS) had statistically significantly higher bleeding on probing and clinical attachment loss than did ES and NS. The probing depths and IL-6, IL-8, and IL-1β levels were statistically significantly higher in CS than in e-cigarette users (ES) and never-smokers (NS).
Conclusions:
This study demonstrated that the oral health status of CS was worse than that of NS and ES in adult males aged 18-35 years.
