5As of Treating Tobacco Dependency:

A
  • Ask the patient about smoking status
  • Advise smokers of the associations between oral disease and smoking
  • Assess the patient’s interest to attempt to quit
  • Assist the patient in the attempt
  • Arrange for referral or follow- up visit

Q

How stress becomes the risk factor for periodontitis:

A
  • Emotional stress may interfere with normal immune function
  • Stressful events lead to greater prevalence of periodontal disease
  • Increased incidence of necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis during periods of high stress

Q

True or False: Risk factors are identified by longitudinal studies of patients with the disease of interest.

19
Q

True or False: To be considered a risk factor, the exposure must occur before disease onset.

20
Q

How many carcinogens have been known for smoking tobacco?

21
Q

What is the major risk factor for periodontitis and affects the prevalence, extent, and severity of the disease?

22
Q

True or False: There is a dose-response relationship between smoking and the prevalence and severity of periodontitis.

23
Q

Effect of smoking on gingivitis.

A

Decreasing gingival inflammation and bleeding on probing.

24
Q

Effect of smoking on periodontitis.

A
  • Increasing the prevalence and severity of periodontal destruction.
  • Increase of pocket depth, attachment loss, and bone loss.
  • Increase of the rate of periodontal destruction
  • Increase in prevalence of severe periodontitis
  • Increase in tooth loss
  • Increase in prevalence with an increased number of cigarettes smoked per day.
  • Decrease of prevalence and severity with smoking cessation.
