Our team at M D Anderson Cancer Center is planing to start a study which will address impact of E cigarette smoking on oral tissues. Literature on E cigarettes is very limited and hence any information on the topic will be extremely helpful. Looking forward for some assistance from researchers in the field.
Good luck..!! What is the base ingredient of E-cigarette anyway? The chemical composition of it could help to predict.
Thank you Dr.Jinesh. Key components of E cigs are - NAB: N′-nitrosoanabasine; NAT: N′-nitrosoanatabine; NNK: N′-nitrosonornicotine; NNN: 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone.
Ingredients are almost same as normal cigarettes but in extremely reduced doses.
Thank you for your suggestion.
Thanks. A series of nitros..!! May be it can stimulate hypoxia signals?.
Is there any study on the effect of e- cigarettes on dental implants. There are many studies on the effect of traditional cigarettes on dental implants. But i couldn't find any relating to e-cigarettes.
