Quantification and Comparison of the Impact of the Smoking Status on Oral Polymorphonuclear Leukocyte and Malondialdehyde Levels in Individuals with Chronic Periodontitis: A Double-Blinded Longitudinal Interventional Study
BACKGROUND: The formation of reactive oxygen species by oral polymorphonuclear leukocytes (oPMNs) is amplified in smokers with chronic periodontitis (CP) causing tissue damage which can be measured by quantifying levels of malondialdehyde (MDA). OBJECTIVE: To quantify and compare the impact of smoki...
