• Passive Smoking• Exposure to secondhand smoke occurs anywhere smoking
is permitted: homes, workplaces, and other public places.
• According to the WHO, some 200,000 workers die each year due to exposure to smoke at work,
• About 700 million children, around half the world's total, breathe air polluted by tobacco smoke, particularly in the home
• Based on the evidence of three recent comprehensive reports on May 29, 2007, the WHO called for a global ban on smoking at work and in enclosed public places.

Passive Smoking• Secondhand smoke is known to harm children, infants
and reproductive health • Acute lower respiratory tract illness, • Asthma induction and exacerbation, • Chronic respiratory symptoms, • Middle ear infection, • Lower birth weight babies, • Sudden Infant Death Syndrome, or SIDS. • Low-level exposure to secondhand smoke has a
clinically important effect on susceptibility to cardiovascular disease,

What is third-hand smoke, and why is it a concern?
Definition:
A term used to describe the gases and small particles in cigarette smoke that are deposited on every surface they come in contact with. From the smoker's hair and clothing, to the environment the cigarette was smoked in, these toxic particles remain long after the cigarette has been put out and any secondhand smoke has been removed from the area.
Premium Healthcare Premium Hospitality21
What is third-hand smoke, and why is it a concern?
• Residual nicotine and other toxic chemicals - indoor surfaces • Potential health hazard to nonsmokers (especially children.)• Third-hand smoke clings to hair, skin, clothes, furniture, drapes,
walls, bedding, carpets, dust, vehicles and other surfaces, even long after smoking has stopped
• Third-hand smoke residue builds up on surfaces over time and resists normal cleaning.
• Can't be eliminated by airing out rooms, opening windows, using fans or air conditioners, or confining smoking to only certain areas of a home.
• Third-hand smoke remains long after smoking has stopped
Premium Healthcare Premium Hospitality
Tobacco Addiction•Motivated by the desire for nicotine. •Smokers regulate their nicotine intake and blood levels by adjusting the frequency and intensity of their smoking both to obtain psychoactive effects and avoid withdrawal.•Smokeless tobacco contains nicotine, carcinogens and other toxins capable of causing gum and oral disease mainly.•When tobacco is burned resultant smoke contains Nicotine, CO + 4000 other toxic compounds.
Premium Healthcare Premium Hospitality23
Effects of Smoking on Health
• Nicotine is absorbed into pulmonary circulation, brain nicotinic cholinergic receptors
• Smokeless tobacco is absorbed more slowly and results in less intense pharmacologic effects.
• With long term use of tobacco, physical dependence develops as a result of an increased number of nicotinic cholinergic receptors in the brain.
Premium Healthcare Premium Hospitality24
Effects of Smoking on Health
• The acidic pH of smoke generated by cigarettes dramatically reduces nicotine absorption in oral mucosa, necessitating inhalation of smoke deep into lungs.
• Alkaline pH of smoke from tobacco utilized in cigars, pipes and smokeless tobacco allows absorption from oral mucosa to satisfy the smokers need for this drug.
Premium Healthcare Premium Hospitality25
Effects of Smoking on HealthORAL
• Staining and shifting of teeth
• Oral cancers • Mouth sores • Root caries (cavities) • Sinusitis • Hairy tongue • Smoker’s lip • Leukoplakia • Snuff Dipper’s lesions • Smoker’ palate
• Periodontal diseases which includes bone and tooth loss, if unchecked, it can lead to complete destruction of the tooth’s supporting tissues, abscesses and, ultimately, loss of the tooth.
• Dangerous gum diseases • Loss of taste sensation • Halitosis (Bad breath)

SMOKING HAZARDS - EYE
• Smoking doubles the risk of nuclear cataract. cataracts are more serious in heavy smokers than in light smokers.
• Age related macular degeneration (AMD) risk among smokers is 2 to 3 times higher.
• Smoking may accelerate the development of, or worsen diabetic retinopathy,
34
• Anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy is an eye disease that results in a sudden, painless loss of vision, often leading to permanent blindness. Smokers are at a 16-fold increased risk
35
SMOKING HAZARDS - SEXUAL• Smoking increases the risk of erectile
dysfunction because blood flow into the penis is blocked by atherosclerosis.
• Smoking also causes – Abnormal sperm shape, – Impaired sperm motility – Damaged sperms, – Oligospermia – Reduced ejaculate volume
36
Smoking and Pregnancy • Smoking causes delivery complications,
(Fetal tobacco syndrome)• Increases risk of pre-term delivery (premature rupture
of membrane)• Abortions : 2 - 3 times• Abruptio placentae & Placenta previa• Giving birth to low-birth weight baby : 4 times• Slows fetal growth • Smoking also increases risk of serious health
problems to the newborn such as: • Cerebral palsy • Mental retardation : 1.5 times• Learning disabilities • Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS)
37
Smoking and Oral Hygiene
• Before: 37-year-old heavy smoker with a heavy build up of dental calculus, stains, and severely offensive tobacco breath.
After: After quitting and a thorough cleaning, this smoker's teeth were restored to their originalwhiteness. Failure to remain tobacco-free will cause the staining to recur in weeks
38
Smoking and Oral Hygiene
Smokers can develop a condition called black hairy tongue
39
Smoking and Periodontitis
Roughly half of periodontitis cases are attributed to current or former smoking. Smokers experience widespread periodontal destruction and have significantly greater loss of bone height
40
Smoker’s Palate
Relatively common tobacco related white lesion seen in the palate of a pipe, cigar or a cigarette smoker. Unless the habit is particularly intense or the patient is a reverse smoker, risk for malignancy is quite low. The combination of tobacco smoke and heat combustion is believed to be important for this tissue change.
41
Smoker’s MelanosisCigarette smoking in particular may lead to melanin pigmentation of the gums and other mucosal sites in the oral cavity. The process is reversible and improves when the patient quits smoking. It is a harmless condition but needs to be separated from other more serious pigmental disorders
42
Smoking Stains Smoking wrinkles
“For smokers, middle-age starts in their early 30’s as the tell-tale wrinkles around the mouth and eyes begin to appear. Young female smokers are likely to be wasting their money on anti-aging face creams if they continue to smoke.”
43
SMOKING & ORAL CANCER
A large cancer (Squamous CC) is shown growing out of neck of this patient’s neck. The cancer was due to smoking and started in patient’s mouth. The cancer eventually eroded into Carotid Artery causing massive bleeding & death.
44
Snuff Dipper’s lesions
A white or discolored lesion of the oral mucosa occurring at the site at which the powdered tobacco is retained. Malignant transformations are not common but do occur, usually as low-grade VERRUCOUS CARCINOMAS.
45
New developments
Global Treaty 2004 WHO Framework Convention for Tobacco Control (FCTC)
Need now to legislate and fund campaigns in accordance with it
The Convention entered into force on 27
February 2005 -- 90 days after it had been acceded to, ratified, accepted, or approved by 40 States. ( now 172 countries have ratified – covering 87% world population)
Non Party StatesCountries those have signed but not yet ratified 1. U.S.A2. Argentina, 3. Cuba, 4. Czech Republic, 5. El Salvador, 6. Ethiopia, 7. Haiti,8. Morocco, 9. Mozambique, 10.Switzerland

Monitor tobacco use and prevention polices.
Protect people from tobacco smoke.
Offer help to quit tobacco use
Warn about the dangers of tobacco.
Enforce bans on tobacco advertising, promotion and sponsorship.
Raise taxes on tobacco.
48
When it comes to stemming the flow of death and destruction that tobacco use leaves in its wake, it takes a village to effect change -- a global village. If adopted by governments around the world, these simple, yet powerful MPOWER policies could be a life preserver that will save millions and millions of lives.

From WHO: "To sell a product that kills up to half of all its users requires some extraordinary marketing savvy."
