Smoking is a common thing that we find everywhere in the world. This habit is so widespread in the environment is well educated and less educated. Smoking has become a complex problem concerning the psychological aspects and social phenomena.

Many studies carried out and instead realize that smoking interfere with the body’s health, but to halt this activity very difficult.

Smoking can cause especially cardiovascular disease and cancer, lung cancer, esophagus, larynx, and oral cavity.
Cancer in the oral cavity usually begins with the irritation of cigarette products to be smoked. These irritants cause white lesions that are not sick.
Also smoking can also cause abnormalities in the oral cavity such as the tongue, gums, mouth mucosa, teeth and palate in the form of Nicotine stomatitis and fungal infections.

Cigarette smoke contains components and substances harmful to the body. The count of components on tobacco depending on the type of tobacco, combustion temperatures, long cigarette, paper porosity, tobacco flavor and presence or absence of filters, While substances dangerous form of gases and particles. We smoke suction 90% contain a variety of gases such as N2, O2, CO2, 10% contain certain particles such as tar, nicotine and others. Particles in cigarette smoke can cause cancer (carcinogenic) is too.

INFLUENCE OF SMOKING ON TONGUE

In heavy smokers, smoking causes stimulation in the papilafiliformis (bulge / hanging at the top of the tongue) to become longer (hypertrophied). Here the results of the cigarette burning brownish-black that easily deposited, so that the smoker is difficult to feel a sense of bitter, salty, and sweet, because damage to the tip of the tentacle sensory (taste buds).

INFLUENCE OF SMOKING ON GUMS

Number of tartar in smokers is more prone than non-smokers. Coral teeth are not cleaned can cause a variety of complaints such as gingivitis or bleeding gums. Besides, the burning cigarette can cause circulation of blood circulation to the gums so easy to contract the disease.

MUCOSAL THICKENING AKOBAT SMOKING

Smoking is a risk factor for leukoplakia is a white patches or plaques on the mucosa of the mouth that can not be deleted. This can be found at the age of 30-70 years the majority of sufferers are smokers, especially men. According to Silverman, the study of all cases of leukoplakia 95% were smokers.

Constant irritation from the burning tobacco causes mucosal thickening in the mouth tissue. Before clinical symptoms appear, irritation from tobacco smoke attacks the epithelial cells of the mucosa so that its activity increased. These symptoms only appear when cellular activity increases and becomes thick epithelium, especially looking at the mucosal buckle (facing the cheek mucosa) and on the floor of the mouth. Mouth mucosal changes will see as white patches. White patches may be caused by a thick epithelium saturated with saliva (saliva). Experts say that leukoplakia is a pre-malignant lesion in the mouth. Leukoplakia becomes malignant change of 3-6%.

STAIN FOR TOBACCO

Teeth may change color due to tobacco. At first this stain be caused by nicotine, but in fact is the result of burning tobacco in the form of tar. Nicotine itself is colorless and easily soluble. Shafer and his colleagues say that the brown color usually occurs in smokers, while black color occurs in smokers who use the pipe. The stains are easy to clean because there is only on the plains outside the teeth. But in people who smoked all his life, the stain can be entered into the enamel layer of the superficial and difficult to remove.

Smoking habits greatly affect oral health, especially changes in the mucosa (mucous membranes). Most, cancers of the mouth mucosa begins with changes. These changes do not cause pain (pre-malignant lesions) that is not observed until the situation becomes advanced. Therefore, if there are white patches, as early as possible to come to the dentist.

Get used to check the teeth every 6 months, despite having no complaints. And most important is a strong will to eliminate smoking, if necessary, consult with your doctor.

General factors:

Importance of Dental Health and Gum

Health teeth and gums are very important to note. Of the focal infection theory that a lot of attention during the 19th century and early 20th century. This theory states that the infection in the oral cavity responsible for the initiation and progression of inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, ulcers, and appendicitis.

Teeth and Gum

Teeth and Gum

Progress in classification and identification of bacteria germs of the oral cavity and immunology, the more convinced of the important role of dental infections to systemic diseases such as heart disease and blood vessel, lung disease, diabetes, stroke, cancer, etc.. Also became increasingly clear that the teeth and oral cavity can be a place of origin for the dissemination of microorganisms that cause disease to other body parts.

Epidemiological studies suggest that infection of the oral cavity, particularly inflammation of the gums (gingivitis) and tooth supporting tissues is a risk factor for systemic diseases.

The number of bacteria in the oral cavity can reach hundreds of millions. Xiajing Li et al (2000) recorded more than 1011 bacteria per milligram of dental plaque. Plaque is a kind of mucus which is always attached to the tooth surface. Not all bacteria harmful oral cavity. Most of it is needed as the normal flora of the mouth. The bacteria causing the disease potential of teeth, and many were found in the systemic disease group anaerobic gram-negative bacteria. Among others, P. Gingivalis, B. Intermedius, and A. Actinomycetemcommitans.

Dissemination through Blood

Oral bacteria can be spread through the bloodstream, called bactericidal. Which can spread the bacteria itself and the resulting toxins (endotoxin / exotoxin)?

Several studies of bactericidal are worth listening to. Bactericidal was observed in 100% of patients after tooth extraction, 70% after cleaning my teeth now, at 55% after surgery tooth wisdom tooth, 20% after treatment tooth roots, and 55% after tonsillectomy.

The study involved 735 children who undergo dental decay, found 9% of children had bactericidal. Other studies have shown the spread of bacteria after treatment of teeth roots. And, less than 1 minute after the procedure the oral cavity, bacteria from an infected tooth has reached the heart, lung, and peripheral blood capillary system.

In normal oral health conditions, only a small number of facultative bacteria and no harm came into the bloodstream. However, the poor oral hygiene conditions, the number of bacteria on tooth surfaces increased 2-10 folds. So the possibility of bactericidal is also greater. Except through bactericidal, a series of immunological reactions that are triggered by infection of the mouth, is another explanation why the problems of the teeth can spread to serious illnesses.

Teeth and gums really do not stick closely, but there is a gap of about 2 mm is called sac gums (gingival sulcus). This area is most susceptible bacterial infection and inflammation, causing periodontal disease. The signs: gums red, swollen, bleed easily, perhaps with shakiness teeth.

Grossi and Genco (17 of 199 suggests that systemic diseases directly related to periodontal disease, including diabetes, heart disease, cancer and stroke. Several retrospective studies show, patients of heart disease, stroke, DM, mouth hygiene is generally worse than normal patients. From above description can be concluded, that the teeth and mouth can be a trigger and exacerbate systemic diseases.

Maintaining healthy teeth and mouth is very important not only to prevent oral disease, but also to maintain good general health.

Teeth have a protective structure called the tooth enamel, which helps prevent the holes in the teeth. Pulp in the tooth shrinks and dentin are stored in place.
Teeth are the most distinguished in different types of mammals, and one that could be a good fossil. Paleontologists use them to identify fossil species and often the relationship between them. The shape of teeth associated with these types of pet food. For example herbivores have many molars for chewing because it is difficult to digest grass.
