Vaping's hidden damage? study probes E-Cigarettes' effect on gums

NCT ID NCT07338318

Summary

This study aimed to understand if using e-cigarettes causes hidden, early damage to healthy gums, similar to the damage caused by regular cigarettes. Researchers compared fluid from the gums of 60 people who were e-cigarette users, regular smokers, or non-smokers. They looked for specific markers that indicate tissue breakdown and stress, even when no gum disease was visible.
