Abstract

Tobacco smoking habit is a risk factor for many oral lesions. A positive association between cigarette smoking and acute necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis (ANUG) was first reported over four decades ago. The dental loss was noted more in smokers than non-smokers. The periodontal disease is noted more in smokers and results alteration in the gingival indexes (GI) and gingival bleeding (GBI) indexes in smokers. Many studies revealed that a strong an association of diabetes as a primary risk factor for oral diseases. The carelessness of the patient and healthcare promoters may diminish the patient’s quality of life and even lead to death of the patient. Diabetes is a disease in which the insulin’s regulatory activity is defective. This can be a result of decreased amount of insulin that should be secreted, total absence of insulin secretion or the production of antibodies against insulin causing its destruction before it can act in the different areas of the body. Most diabetic patients present at least one lesion or abnormality of the oral mucosa. The present study is to compare the risk factors of oral lesions for diabetic patients with smoking and without smoking and non-diabetic patients with smoking and non-smoking.
