Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to explore age-related differences in gingival pigmentation due to smoking among a young population, which has not been thoroughly researched.
- Participants, aged 19 to 79, were analyzed using photographs and categorized into 10-year age groups, revealing that those in their 30s had the most significant gingival pigmentation.
- It was found that smoking cessation had a minimal effect on gingival pigmentation in individuals in their 20s, indicating that younger smokers experience more pronounced pigmentation changes than older adults, highlighting the need for targeted anti-smoking education for younger populations.
Measurement of Reduced Gingival Melanosis after Smoking Cessation: A Novel Analysis of Gingival Pigmentation Using Clinical Oral Photographs.

Background: Due to moisture and the anatomical complexity of the oral mucosa, it is difficult to measure the extent of gingival melanosis in an optical manner. Therefore, we developed a new quantitative method using clinical oral photographs and compared the extent of gingival melanosis before and after smoking cessation.
Methods: A new analysis method, which we named the gingival melanosis record (GMR), is a quantitative analysis method using clinical oral photographs.
