Morphological and immunological analysis of the oral mucosa in tobacco smoking and odontopreparation

  • Published:
Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine Aims and scope

Abstract

Tobacco smoking causes pronounced structural reorganization of the gingival mucosa and its atrophic changes. Odontopreparation stimulates destructive processes in the gingival mucosa promoting activation of local immunity (stimulation of immunoglobulin synthesis). Significant differences in the local humoral immunity (IgG dysimmunoglobulinemia) and cytokine spectrum in nonsmoking and tobacco-smoking patients were detected. Subcompensated level of immune resistance in tobacco smokers prompts referring them to a group at a high risk of chronic pathological processes of the oral cavity.
