Effect of Second Hand Smoking on Oral and Dental Health in Children

Abstract

Cigarette smoke is a basic public health problem, harming not only to the smoker ,but also to those who are found in the same environment.This is the reason that children are under this threat. Today, this issue has gained importance in terms of dentistry. There are studies reporting that smoking during pregnancy affects the development and function of teeth, increases the risk of dental caries, causes cleft lip and palate and hypoplasia of primary teeth. In particular, maternal smoking was accepted as one of the important risk factors for caries development. Cigarette smoke exposure has been shown to be a destructive factor in pediatric patients with a high incidence of caries. Currently, the rate of smoking and tobacco use continues to increase, more research should be done on the effects of oral health on children as well as the general health of children and parents should be informed more on this issue. In this review, the effects of passive smoking on children's oral and dental health are discussed in the light of current literature.

Pasif Sigara İçiciliğinin Çocuklarda Ağız ve Diş Sağlığı Üzerine Etkileri

Abstract

Sigara dumanı yalnız içene değil, aynı ortamda bulanlara da zarar vermesi ve bu durumdan en çok çocukların etkilenmesi bakımından temel bir halk sağlığı sorunudur. Günümüzde bu konu diş hekimliği açısından da önem kazanmıştır. Hamilelik döneminde annenin sigara kullanımının diş gelişimi ve fonksiyonlarını etkilediği, çürük riskini arttırdığı, dudak damak yarıklarına ve süt dişlerinde hipoplazilere neden olduğunu bildiren çalışmalar mevcuttur. Özellikle annenin sigara kullanımı çürük gelişiminde önemli risk faktörlerinden kabul edilmiştir. Yüksek çürük riskli çocuklarda çevresel sigara dumanı maruziyeti de yıkıcı faktörler arasında gösterilmiştir. Günümüzde sigara ve tütün kullanım oranının artarak devam ettiği dikkate alınırsa çocukların genel sağlığının yanı sıra ağız diş sağlığı açısından da olumsuz etkileri üzerine daha fazla araştırma yapılmalı ve ebeveynler sigara dumanının olası yan etkileri konusunda bilgilendirilmelidir. Bu derlemede pasif sigara içiciliğinin çocukların ağız ve diş sağlığı üzerine etkileri güncel literatür eşliğinde tartışılmıştır.
