Brief summary

The purpose of this study; In periodontally healthy individuals, high sensitive c-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels of non-smokers, smokers of less than 10 cigarettes per day and smokers of more than 10 cigarettes per day were measured at 15 rpm-10 min, 10 centrifuge values, which are frequently used in saliva studies. To determine the levels in saliva samples as a result of rpm-10 min and 10 rpm 6 min centrifugations and to determine the values at which a cytokine of this molecular weight should be centrifuged and to examine the possible correlation between these values and the clinical parameters of the amount of smoking. Materials and Methods: saliva samples were collected from 90 systemically healthy individuals who were non-smokers (N, n=30), light smokers \<10 cigarettes per day (L, n=30) and heavy smokers \>10 cigarettes per day (H, n=20). samples were taken. Full-mouth clinical periodontal measurements, including probing depth (PD), clinical attachment level (CAL), bleeding on probing (BOP), gingival index (GI), and plaque index (PI), were also recorded. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to determine hs-CRP levels in biological samples.

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TESTsaliva obtaining

The patient was asked to sit upright and tilt his/her head forward to collect saliva samples. İn this way, unstimulated saliva was allowed to accumulate in the floor of the mouth. The accumulated saliva was collected in a sterile container. It was then transferred to a propylene tube. The tubes were centrifuged and the clear part at the top of the tube was taken with a sterile syringe and transferred to a different propylene tube with 0.5 ml in each tube. Tubes were stored at -80ºC until the day of analysis.

Intervention model description

According to full-mouth clinical periodontal measurements including probing depth (PD), clinical attachment level (CAL),bleeding on probing (BOP), gingival index (GI) and plaque index (PI) samples of saliva were obtained from 90 systemically healthy non-smoker individuals with heavy smokers (H, n=30), light smokers(L, n=30) and non-smokers (N, n=30).
