Cigarette Smoking and Periodontal Bone Loss
Abstract
T he association between smoking and loss of periodontal bone height was investigated in Swedish dental hygienists. The study group included 210 subjects: 24 to 60 years of age, 30% smokers, 32% former smokers, and 38% non‐smokers. The study was based on bite‐wing radiographs, where loss of the interproximal bone height was measured as the distance from the cemento‐enamel junction (CEJ) to the interdental septum (IS). The magnitude of the CEJ‐IS distance was read at 12 sites, representing 3 maxillary and 3 mandibular bone septa in each subject. The CEJ‐IS distance was significantly greater for smokers when compared to non‐smokers, mean ± SEM 1.71 ± 0.08 mm and 1.45 ± 0.04 mm, respectively. The mean ± SEM for former smokers was 1.55 ± 0.05 mm. In smokers, the CEJ‐IS distance increased with increased smoking exposure. The results, based on adults with good oral hygiene, suggest that loss of periodontal bone is related to smoking. The smoking related bone loss is not correlated with plaque infection.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
