A wealth of research has comprehensively documented the harmful effects of traditional cigarette smoking and nicotine on human health. The lower rate of exposure to harmful chemicals and toxic substances offered by alternative electronic smoking devices (e-cigarettes, vaping, etc.) has made these methods of smoking popular, especially among adolescents and young adults, and they are regarded frequently as safer than regular cigarettes. During vaporization of these so-called e-liquids, toxins, carcinogens and various other chemical substances may be released and inhaled by the user. Data on the potential human health effect attendant on exposure to e-vapor are based mainly on animal and in vitro studies. The oral tissues are the first locus of direct interaction with the components of the inhaled vapor. However, the short-term as well as long-term effects of the exposure are not known. The aim of the review is to briefly present data on the effects of the chemical components and toxins of e-cigarette vapor on oral cavity cells and tissues of oral health.
大量研究全面记录了传统吸烟和尼古丁对人类健康的有害影响。替代电子吸烟设备(电子烟、雾化等)提供的有害化学物质和有毒物质暴露率较低,这使得这些吸烟方式很受欢迎,尤其是在青少年和年轻人中,而且它们常常被认为比普通香烟更安全。在这些所谓的电子烟液汽化过程中,毒素、致癌物和各种其他化学物质可能会释放出来并被使用者吸入。关于接触电子烟雾对人类健康潜在影响的数据主要基于动物和体外研究。口腔组织是与吸入蒸汽成分直接相互作用的首要部位。然而,这种接触的短期和长期影响尚不清楚。本综述的目的是简要介绍关于电子烟蒸汽的化学成分和毒素对口腔健康的口腔细胞和组织影响的数据。
