About this study

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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in Clinical Attachment Level (millimeters) after 24 months (time frame: baseline and 24 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
