We speak of oral cancer when a malignant tumor<\/strong> develops in any of the structures of the mouth<\/strong> such as the mucous membranes, palate, tongue, lip, gums or bones. Cancer occurs when carcinogenic agents act on cells and alter their genetic material, producing a mutation. These damaged cells can divide and multiply excessively in the body. Although there are several triggers for this disease, 8 out of 10 patients with oral cancer are regular smokers.<\/strong> <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Periodontal disease is that which affects the support apparatus of the teeth<\/strong>, such as the gums, bone and periodontal ligament. We speak of gingivitis when there is inflammation of the gums, but the bone is not damaged. On the other hand, if there is bone loss, we catalog it as periodontitis, which can lead to tooth loss in the most advanced cases. In fact, periodontitis is the first cause of tooth loss in adults, above caries. Although periodontal disease has an important genetic factor, it can be accentuated<\/strong> by various factors such as smoking. According to the NHANES<\/a> study, smokers are four times more likely to develop it. In addition, smoking can mask a warning sign of active periodontitis, such as bleeding and swollen gums, due to its vasoconstrictive effect. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

The effect of nicotine in the mouth causes a decrease in the blood supply to the tissues, resulting in <\/span>a decrease in the blood supply to the tissues and thus a reduced supply of oxygen and white blood cells.<\/span> <\/span>white blood cells <\/span>that can fight possible infections. It has also been proven that smokers tend to have slower healing after oral surgery.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

After a dental extraction, the mouth generates a clot in the alveolus that favors the healing and regeneration of the tissues. However, in some cases this clot may not form or may not form correctly<\/strong>, causing a very painful infection known as alveolitis. One of the main reasons for this healing not occurring correctly is smoking, since the nicotine substance constricts the blood vessels, minimizing the blood supply to the alveolus. <\/p>

Dental implants are titanium attachments that serve as “artificial roots” where there are no teeth in order to anchor a fixed dental prosthesis on them. Although they do not usually cause problems, there isan inflammatory process that affects the tissues surrounding a dental implant and can lead to its loss<\/g>. Smoking is one of the main risk factors for this infection called peri-implantitis. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Suffering from xerostomia or dry mouth, that is, having an inadequate flow of saliva, has many negative consequences on oral health. Saliva acts against pathogenic organisms and is a fundamental ally in the process of cleaning and protecting teeth and gums. However, tobacco causes dry mouth<\/strong>, which makes us more vulnerable, among other things, to caries. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Dental caries is an infectious disease caused by bacteria in the mouth.

Halitosis is the condition of having bad breath. The lack of saliva is one of the main causes of this problem, but the smell of tobacco itself also accentuates it<\/strong>. In addition, tobacco irritates the mucous membranes of the mouth and respiratory tract, which prevents proper oxygenation with consequent damage to the breath. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Maintaining the original color of the teeth requires careful dental hygiene and regular visits to the dentist. In the case of smokers, this need is even greater, since the nicotine and tar contained in cigarettes are deposited on the tooth surface<\/strong>and can penetrate the dentinal tubules, staining and yellowing them. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Another negative consequence of smoking is that it alters the oral microflora, which favors the development of fungi in the mouth such as candidiasis or mucosal lesions<\/strong> such as pemphigus, leukoplakia or lichen planus, which in turn, may have a risk of malignancy causing oral cancer.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

The effect of tobacco on the appearance and health of the skin is well known, as its prolonged use causes premature aging. But in<\/g> addition, regular smokers can<\/g> also suffer from the so-called “bar code”<\/g> that forms around the lips, especially the upper lip. This is due to a folding of the epithelium of the lips that eventually turns into a wrinkle due to the continuous stimulation of the orbicularis oculi muscle that we use in actions such as kissing, whistling or sucking cigarette smoke, which is why it is also known as smoker’s mouth. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
