“…Lower social status (Halling and Bengtsson, 1984;Bergman et al, 1991;Drake et al, 1995) and alcoholic beverage consumption (Kranzler et al, 1990;Drake et al, 1995) are associated with greater tooth loss. It is not known if caffeine intake has an independent effect on tooth loss.…”

Smoking, Smoking Cessation, and Tooth Loss

Smoking is associated with an increased risk of tooth loss, but it is not known if this risk decreases significantly when individuals quit smoking. The objectives of this study were to describe the rates of tooth loss by smoking status in two populations of medically healthy men and women. Among the men, rates of tooth loss and edentulism in relation to smoking cessation were also evaluated. The subjects were drawn from a group of 584 women (aged 40 to 70) recruited from the Boston, MA, area and a separate population of 1231 male veterans (aged 21 to 75) who participated in the VA Dental Longitudinal Study in Boston. In cross-sectional baseline analyses, current cigarette smokers of either sex had significantly more missing teeth than never-smokers or former smokers. Former smokers and pipe or cigar smokers tended to have an intermediate number of missing teeth. Current male smokers had more teeth with calculus, but the differences in plaque, tooth mobility, probing depth > 2 mm, filled and decayed teeth, and bleeding on probing by smoking history were not significant. Prospective observations of 248 women (mean follow-up time = 6 +/- 2 years) and 977 men (mean = 18 +/- 7 years) indicated that individuals who continued to smoke cigarettes had 2.4-fold (men) to 3.5-fold risk (women) of tooth loss compared with non-smokers. The rates of tooth loss in men were significantly reduced after they quit smoking cigarettes but remained higher than those in non-smokers. Men who smoked cigarettes had a 4.5-fold increase in risk of edentulism, and this risk also decreased upon smoking cessation. These findings indicate that the risk of tooth loss is greater among cigarette smokers than among non-smokers. Smoking cessation significantly benefits an individual's likelihood of tooth retention, but it may take decades for the individual to return to the rate of tooth loss observed in non-smokers.

“…Thus, preparing preventive measures for periodontal disease in consideration of educational level and low-income class and reducing the gap between each group are extremely needed. In addition, Kanzler et al 21) argued that periodontal tissue disease can be highly developed in alcohol addicts as their oral condition is far worse than that of non-addicts. Our study also showed that problem drinkers had an increased need for periodontal treatment by 1.58 times compared to average drinkers (p＜0.05).…”

The purpose of this study was to determine the association between drinking behaviors and the need for periodontal treatment. The data of 5,995 adults from the 2012 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey were categorized into young adulthood (19∼39 years), middle age (40∼64 years), and old age (≥65 years) and analyzed. Chi-square test was performed to determine those who needed periodontal treatment by the respondents' general characteristics and drinking behaviors, and logistic regression analysis was carried out to determine the impact of each drinking behavior on the need for periodontal treatment. The results of this study have confirmed that alcohol intake is a factor adversely affecting periodontal status; therefore, patients should know the fact that excessive alcohol intake and increased frequency of drinking may affect the prevalence rate of periodontal diseases. Moreover, moderate-drinking programs that can reinforce prevention of drinking so that dental hygienists can provide good oral health care should be developed. A systematic oral health promotion program should be introduced for constant prevention with the objective of activating oral health education that focused on middle-aged and young-adult people in pursuit of healthy aging society.

:Aims: A descriptive type of cross-sectional study was conducted comprising 100 non-commissioned soldiers of Bangladesh Army attended Dhaka combined military hospital (CMH) during January to July 2012, to find out the factors affecting their oral health. Materials and Methods:Data were collected by structured questionnaire. Collected data were compiled, tabulated, analyzed by computer using SPSS version 16.0.Results: Mean age of the respondents was 30.16±5.09 (range 20-41) years where about 60% were married.Most (91%) of themcompleted secondary school certificate. Eightypercent (80%) lived in barracks and 97% had idea about dental diseases and 3% had not.Of all, 73% respondents brushed their teeth once daily and 27%, twice daily.Majority(76%)respondents brushed their teeth at morning and the lowest 11% after breakfast and the rest (13%) brushed their teeth at bed time.Ninety nine percent(99%) respondents used tooth paste as cleaning materials and only 1% respondents used something else.In this study, 40.0% visited dentist once in a year, 17% twice in a year and 43% did never visit dentist without dental problem. Usually48% visited dental chamber for gum bleeding and only 1%visited for regular dental checkups. Among the respondents, 36% visited dental chamber for pain and 15% visited dental chamber for detection of dental caries by themselves. The notable bad habits were not observed among 84.0% of the respondents. A few respondents had smoking (6.0%), betel nut chewing (4.0%) and snuff dipping (3.0%)habits. Of all,63% of the respondents had swelling of gum and 37% had no swelling of gum. Presence and absence of calculus on the gingival margin were found 47% and 53%, respectively.In view of individual perspective,2DMFT had among 40.0% respondents, followed by 1DMFT, 29%, 4DMFT,12%, 3DMFT, 3.0% and 16% respondents had no DMFT. Conclusions:Overall findings suggest that the factors that affect the oral health were smoking, frequency of tooth brushing, having some bat habits and visit to dentist when dental symptoms such as bleeding gums or toothache occurred. Clinical factors included bleeding and swollen gums, toothache and caries.
