Periodontal disease is one of the most common diseases of the oral cavity affecting up to
90% of the worldwide population. Smoking has been identified as a major risk factor in the …

Resolution of dysbiosis following treatment for periodontal disease and tobacco
dependence has been reported in longitudinal intervention studies. In the present report, we …

Aim To compare the results of two targeted techniques to an open‐ended technique in
periodontitis patients, differentiated on the basis of smoking habit. Materials & Methods …

The etiology of periodontitis has traditionally been associated to a consortium of three
bacterial species—the so-called “red-complex” of periodontal disease—which has been the …

Smoking is a risk factor for periodontal disease, and a cause of oral microbiome dysbiosis.
While this has been evaluated for traditional cigarette smoking, there is limited research on …

It has been demonstrated that smoking cessation alters the subgingival microbial profile;
however, the response of individual bacteria within this ecosystem has not been well …

The subgingival microbiome is largely uncultivated, and therefore, cultivation-based and
targeted molecular approaches have limited value in examining the effect of smoking on this …

Dysbiotic oral bacterial communities have a critical role in the etiology and progression of
periodontal diseases. The goal of this study was to investigate the extent to which smoking …

Aims Dysbiotic microbial communities underlie the aetiology of several oral diseases,
especially in smokers. The ability of an ecosystem to rebound from the dysbiotic state and re …

Tobacco smoking has been implicated in periodontal pathology through various
mechanisms, including perturbations of the inflammatory and host responses to putative …
