Abstract

Smoking is considered a risk factor for periodontitis genesis and progression. Numerous clinical studies have demonstrated the negative effect of smoking, in particular the number of cigarettes consumed (NCC), on periodontal clinical parameters. However, smoking addiction assessed by the Fagerström test for nicotine dependence (FTND) has received little attention in periodontal research.
