Abstract:
Tobacco use has detrimental effects on health, including oral health. The emergence and increasing popularity of newer tobacco and nicotine products make tobacco use one of the major public health problems in the world. Tobacco use increases the risk of oral diseases such as oral cancer, oral mucosal lesions, periodontal disease, and dental caries, among many other oral diseases and conditions. The dental office is an excellent venue for providing cessation intervention. However, there is a lack of knowledge and training in tobacco use prevention among dental professionals. More efforts are needed for smoking cessation interventions in the dental office. Smoking cessation interventions provided by oral healthcare providers include brief educational, behavioral, and pharmacological interventions. This review provides an overview of the ill effects of tobacco use on oral health and the role of oral healthcare providers in managing and preventing tobacco dependence.
摘要:
烟草使用对健康有有害影响,包括口腔健康。新型烟草和尼古丁产品的出现和日益普及使烟草使用成为世界上主要的公共卫生问题之一。烟草使用会增加口腔癌等口腔疾病的风险,口腔粘膜病变,牙周病,和龋齿,在许多其他口腔疾病和病症中。牙科诊所是提供戒烟干预的绝佳场所。然而,牙科专业人员缺乏预防烟草使用的知识和培训。牙科诊所需要更多的戒烟干预措施。口腔保健提供者提供的戒烟干预措施包括简短的教育,行为,和药物干预。这篇综述概述了烟草使用对口腔健康的不良影响以及口腔保健提供者在管理和预防烟草依赖中的作用。
