Abstract

The nexus between smoking and oral health is a significant concern in dental medicine, impacting millions worldwide. Smoking, often linked to various systemic health issues, also plays a critical role in the prevalence and severity of oral health conditions. These include but are not limited to tooth decay, periodontal disease, and the increased risk of oral cancer. The consequences of smoking on oral health extend beyond mere esthetics, affecting the success rates of dental implants, the healing process after teeth are removed, and contributing to conditions such as dry socket and dental caries. Understanding the comprehensive impact of smoking on oral health is vital for public health initiatives and individual preventive measures.
