Objective: This retrospective case-control study aimed to investigate the association between smoking and radiographically diagnosed apical periodontitis
using panoramic radiographs and periapical index (PAI) scoring system.
Methods: The records of 75 controls and 75 patients from the Department
of Oral Diagnosis and Radiology at Marmara University Dental Faculty, Turkey
were selected and studied. Inclusion criteria were as follows: patients who were
aged >20 years, had at least eight remaining teeth, and agreed to a complete
clinical and radiographic examination. The case group comprised patients who
had at least one periapical lesion, which was radiographically detectable in a
tooth. The control group included patients who had no radiographically defined periapical lesion in any teeth.
Results: In this retrospective case-control study, no statistically significant association was observed between smoking and periapical status (p>0.05). In
addition, there was no significant association between diabetes mellitus and
apical periodontitis in both control and case groups (p>0.05).
Conclusion: As a result, no significant association was found among smoking,
diabetes mellitus, and the presence of radiographically detected periapical lesions in this study

Amaç: Bu retrospektif vaka-kontrol çalışmasının amacı sigara kullanımı ve
radyografik olarak tanısı konulmuş apikal periodontitis arasındaki ilişkinin
panoramik radyografi kullanılarak Periapikal İndeks skorlama sistemi (PAI) ile
değerlendirilmesidir.
Yöntemler: Çalışmada 75 vaka ve 75 kontrol hastalarına ait kayıtlar Marmara
Üniversitesi Oral Diagnoz ve Radyoloji bölümüne ait arşivden elde edilmiştir.
Çalışmaya alınma kriterleri arasında hastaların 20 yaşından büyük olmaları, en
az 8 dişe sahip olmaları ve tam bir klinik ve radyografik muayeneyi kabul etmeleri bulunmaktadır. Vaka grubunu en az bir dişinde radyografik olarak tespit
edilebilen periapikal lezyona sahip hastalar oluşturmaktadır. Kontrol grubunda
ise hastaların hiçbir dişinde periapikal lezyon tespit edilmemiştir.
Bulgular: Bu çalışmada periapikal lezyon varlığı ve sigara kullanımı arasında
istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir ilişki bulunmamaktadır (p>0,05). Ayrıca diabetes
mellitus ve periapikal lezyon mevcudiyeti açısından her iki grup arasında anlamlı bir ilişki görülmemiştir (p>0,05).
Sonuç: Sonuç olarak çalışmada sigara kullanımı ve diabetes mellitus ile radyografik
olarak tespit edilen periapikal lezyonlar arasında anlamlı bir ilişki saptanmamıştır
