- Conditions
- Periodontitis
- Registration Number
- NCT02493270
- Lead Sponsor
- University of Sao Paulo
- Brief Summary
The aim of this prospective study is to verify the efficacy of smoking cessation on non-surgical periodontal therapy in adult subjects with chronic periodontitis.
Smokers that were willing to quit received periodontal treatment and concurrent smoking cessation therapy. Periodontal maintenance was performed every 3 months. A calibrated examiner, blinded to smoking status, assessed periodontal status, gathered demographic and behavioural information with a structured questionnaire and measured air carbon monoxide concentration measurements.
