“…6 About 300 chemical compounds have been identified in hookah smoke; 82 of them are toxic substances, and of these, 23 are carcinogens, including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, heterocyclic compounds, primary aromatic amines, N-heterocyclic amines, tobacco-specific nitrosamines, and metals, as well as nicotine that causes chemical dependency. 7 Thus, hookah smoke contains large amounts of toxic substances that are known to cause diseases, such as cancer, in addition to chemical dependency. Moreover, tobacco consumption through hookah smoking is also associated with oral, esophageal, lung, gastric, and bladder cancers.…”

The aim of the study was to evaluate the salivary metabolomic profile of patients who habitually smoke hookah and cigarettes. The groups consisted of 33 regular and exclusive hookah smokers, 26 regular and exclusive cigarette smokers, and 30 nonsmokers. Unstimulated whole saliva was collected for the measurement of salivary metabolites by gas chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (GC–MS/MS). The MetaboAnalyst software was used for statistical analysis and evaluation of biomarkers. 11 smoking salivary biomarkers were identified using the area under receiving-operator curver criterion and threshold of 0.9. Xylitol and octadecanol were higher in cigarette smokers compared to controls; arabitol and maltose were higher in controls compared to cigarette smokers; octadecanol and tyramine were higher in hookah smokers compared to controls; phenylalanine was higher in controls compared to hookah smokers; and fructose, isocitric acid, glucuronic acid, tryptamine, maltose, tyramine, and 3-hydroxyisolvaleric acid were higher in hookah smokers compared to cigarettes smokers. Conclusions: The evaluation of the salivary metabolome of hookah smokers, showing separation between the groups, especially between the control versus hookah groups and cigarette versus hookah groups, and it seems to demonstrate that the use of hookah tobacco is more damaging to health.

“…However, in recent years, there has been an increasing trend in waterpipe use in several regions such as Latin America. 4 A study conducted in Brazil involving 16273 participants aged 12 to 16 years showed that the overall proportion of waterpipe use in the past 12 months was 1.65%. 5 This rate is increasing specifically among young people.…”

“…7 For decades, public opinion has underestimated the damaging effects of this form of tobacco use. 4 Waterpipe is implicated in many pathologies, including respiratory diseases (COPD, bronchitis, and wheezes due to exposure to passive waterpipe smoking), low birth weight, metabolic syndrome, cardiovascular disease, and mental health. 8 An association between waterpipe use and malignancies (oral and lung cancers) has also been suggested.…”

Aim of the study. The world sees a rising consumption of waterpipe. The present systematic review aims to assess clinical and radiographic manifestations of oral illnesses, dental, periodontal, or soft tissue disorders related to waterpipe use.Methods. The authors searched MEDLINE, Cochrane Library, and LILACS for oral health manifestations due to waterpipe consumption. PRISMA guidelines were adopted for the current systematic review. Meta-analysis performed with Review Manager 5.4 assessing risk of bias across included studies.Results. Nine studies assessing oral impact of waterpipe were included. Majority of articles are from a Middle Eastern population where the waterpipe use is more common than other parts of the world. Studies have assessed some oral health issues such as gingival inflammation, bleeding on probing, clinical attachment, probing pocket depth, bone height and tooth mobility.
