This chapter affirms that drugs and medicaments may have a profound effect on the periodontal structures. In some instances, such as drug-induced melanosis, the effect may be insignificant to the health of the patient. In other circumstances, drug-induced disorders may initiate painful, destructive disease processes that will not be successfully managed unless the causal role of drugs is recognized and altered. Finally, the clinician must remain aware of the contribution of drug-induced xerostomia and smoking to increased susceptibility to dental and periodontal diseases.
本章确认药物和药剂可能对牙周组织产生深远影响。在某些情况下，如药物性黑变病，这种影响可能对患者健康影响不大。在其他情况下，药物引起的疾病可能引发疼痛、破坏性的疾病过程，除非认识到药物的因果作用并加以改变，否则这些疾病将无法得到有效控制。最后，临床医生必须始终意识到药物性口干和吸烟会增加患牙齿和牙周疾病的易感性。
