Cigarette smoking significantly affects oral health<\/strong><\/p>\n

11.1 million smokers in Mexico (INER)<\/strong><\/p>\n

691 thousand people smoke daily in Mexico City (Secretar\u00eda de Salud)<\/strong><\/p>\n

In Mexico, 11.1 million people are smokers, equivalent to 15.9% of the national population, according to data from the National Institute of Respiratory Diseases (INER). This causes major dental problems. <\/p>\n

Tobacco abuse can cause all kinds of diseases, among the most common of which are respiratory diseases. It can also cause oral problems. <\/p>\n

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), 1.9 million people in Mexico City alone are smokers, 691,000 of whom smoke daily.<\/p>\n

The specialists of The Boutique Dental Clinic <\/a> state that the main problems that can occur in the mouth<\/a> due to tobacco consumption are:<\/p>\n

Periodontitis<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Most smokers have a 2.5 to 5 times higher risk of suffering from periodontal disease<\/a> compared to non-smokers.<\/p>\n

In these cases, the periodontal pockets are deeper and the possibility of losing the tooth becomes greater, explain specialists from The Boutique Dental Clinic.<\/p>\n

Gingivitis<\/strong><\/h2>\n

According to the Oral B Association, tobacco masks gum inflammation and gums tend to bleed<\/a> less despite being inflamed.<\/p>\n

The specialists at La Cl\u00ednica Dental Boutique<\/a> assure that when a patient reduces cigarette consumption, there is an increase in bleeding during tooth brushing.<\/p>\n

Stains on teeth<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Dentists at The Boutique Dental Clinic comment that teeth are stained or often stained due to the combined action of nicotine and tar. In addition, tobacco on the teeth can favor the appearance of tartar. <\/p>\n

There are other foods that can stain teeth<\/a> such as coffee, artificial colorings added to foods or candies, etc.<\/p>\n

Caries<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Oral B Association in most smokers there are more severe cases of caries<\/a>, this because cigarettes cause a lower production of saliva, as a result of this is a lower capacity to neutralize plaque.<\/p>\n

Hardening of the palate<\/strong><\/h2>\n

According to the Technological University of Mexico, when smoking, cigarette smoke is trapped in the mouth for a few seconds, causing the palate to become irritated, thus causing a whitish tissue with red dots to form and harden.<\/p>\n

Failure in implant placement<\/h2>\n

The specialists of the Boutique Dental Clinic<\/a> agree that the failure rate in implant placement<\/a> is higher in people who habitually use tobacco, since smoking causes the loss of bone support of the implants and therefore they tend to fall out.<\/p>\n

When performing an implant treatment, it is very important to make the patient aware of the importance of not smoking during the treatment, since this can considerably affect the healing of the implant base and affect the patient.<\/p>\n

Oral cancer<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Considered the most serious effect in smokers. According to the Mexican Dental Association (ADM) and specialists at La Cl\u00ednica Dentail Boutique,<\/a> between 75 and 90 percent of oral cancer cases in Mexico are linked to the combined effects of alcohol and tobacco consumption. <\/p>\n

In Mexico, 2,500 cases of oral cancer<\/a> are registered every year, of which 52 percent die, according to a study by the National Autonomous University of Mexico.<\/p>\n

Companies committed to Mexican oral health as La Clinica Dental Boutique<\/a> remember the importance of checkups every six months. With the support of the intraoral camera, they perform Full Digital Diagnostics (DCD),<\/a> where together with the patient, the current state of the mouth is reviewed on a screen with HD definition so that the best treatment plan can be developed. <\/p>\n
