Popis: | Abstract: The negative impact on general health of the population of the UK due to the widespread use of tobacco is well documented. In relation to the practice of oral surgery (OS) a tobacco habit can influence the delivery of care in a number of ways. This paper aims to document the oral disease processes and the negative outcomes of oral surgery procedures where a tobacco habit is considered a contributing factor. CPD/Clinical Relevance: The presence of a tobacco habit cannot only have a negative impact on various aspects of oral health but will also influence the consenting process when considering invasive procedures. |
