Objective: To determine the relationship between periodontal disease and smoking habit in patients, that attended the dental clinics in la Santo Tomas University.
Materials and methods: An analytical cross section observational study was made. The universe constituted by 760 patients between 20 and 60 years old and the sample by 178 patients, 89 smokers and 89 nonsmokers selected by means of simple random sampling. The simple statistical analysis included the calculation of summary measures; in the bivaried analysis test of square Chi or Fisher Exact test were applied. By the multivaried analysis a binomial regression was applied, that considered as an exit variable the presence of Periodontal Disease, and RR and its respective confidence intervals were calculated.
Results: The presence of a periodontal marker was observed at least in 87% of the evaluated patients; There was a greater association almost two times to present periodontal disease in smoker patients in comparison with the nonsmokers and greater a relative risk of four times in smoker people with index of regular hygiene.
Conclusion: It was established the habit to smoke is a significant factor in the development and the progression of the periodontal diseases, that the gingival bled one is diminished in these patients and who aspects like the prevention, the education and the motivation of the oral hygiene are fundamental so that this pathology is not developed
