Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The effect of different forms of nicotine intake on the gingival health of dental patients that visited a public sector in Islamabad. A total of 300 dental patients that visited School of Dentistry, Islamabad voluntarily participated in this study. The nicotine consuming participants involved in this study were Smoke-form users, E cigarette-form users, and Dual-form users whose Gingival Index (G-I) was inspected to demonstrate an association between their smoking type and duration of developing severe gingivitis.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

A total of 300 dental patients who visited the School of Dentistry, Islamabad, participated voluntarily in this study. The nicotine-consuming participants involved in this study were Smoke-Form users (S-form), Electronic cigarette-form users (E-form), and Dual-Form users (D-form) whose Gingival Index (G-I) was inspected to demonstrate an association between their smoking type and duration of developing severe gingivitis. The G-I ranging between 0.5 - 2.00 was used to calculate the occurrence of severe gingival issues in participants with smoking habits where G-I between 0.50 1.00 displayed Light gingival inflammation, G-I between 1.10-2.00 revealed Moderate gingival inflammation and G-I \> 2.00 confirmed Severe gingival inflammation. A chi-Square test was used for the association by keeping significance p\< 0.05.
