Evaluation of the Effect of Electronic Cigarette Aerosol on Normal and Diabetic Human Fibroblast Interaction with Dental Implant Materials

This study demonstrated, for the first time, possible adverse effects of e-cig aerosol on the interactions between gingival and diabetic skin fibroblasts and dental implants. This study suggests that e-cigs may pose a potential risk to oral health. Clinicians providing dental care to patients with dental implants should consider special care when patients vape. Also, e-cig users should consider an accurate mouth hygiene plan to prevent periodontal disease.
