Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study was to demonstrate in patients with generalized chronic periodontitis that switching from cigarette smoking to using IQOS improves the response to periodontal therapy and the overall oral health status compared to continuing cigarette smoking.
Note: "IQOS" is the Tobacco Heating System (THS) with Marlboro Heatsticks, marketed in Japan under the brand name IQOS

Primary Outcome Measures :
- Periodontal Pocket Depth (PD) Change From Baseline at 6 Months [ Time Frame: At 6 months ]Pocket depth (PD) is the distance from the gingival margin to which a probe penetrates into the pocket. Mean Periodontal PD change from baseline will be measured in all sites with initial PD ≥ 4 mm, following mechanical periodontal therapy, in patients who switch to IQOS use compared to those who continue cigarette smoking.
Secondary Outcome Measures :
- Periodontal Pocket Depth (PD) Change Over Time. (Mean PD in All Subjects With Initial PD ≥ 4 mm) [ Time Frame: At 3 months ]Pocket depth (PD) is the distance from the gingival margin to which a probe penetrates into the pocket. Mean Periodontal PD change from baseline will be measured in all sites with initial PD ≥ 4 mm, following mechanical periodontal therapy, in patients who switch to IQOS use compared to those who continue cigarette smoking.
- Clinical Attachment Level (CAL) Change Over Time (Mean CAL in All Subjects With Initial PD ≥ 4 mm) [ Time Frame: At 3 months and 6 months ]Clinical attachment level (CAL) is the measured distance from cementoenamel junction (CEJ) to the bottom of pocket using a periodontal probe. Mean CAL change from baseline will be measured in sites with initial PD ≥ 4 mm, following mechanical periodontal therapy, in patients who switch to IQOS use compared to those who continue cigarette smoking.
- Periodontal Pocket Depth (PD) Change Over Time. (Mean PD in All Subjects With Initial PD ≥ 4 mm) - Descriptive Statistics [ Time Frame: From baseline to 3 months and 6 months ]Pocket depth (PD) is the distance from the gingival margin to which a probe penetrates into the pocket. Mean Periodontal PD change from baseline will be measured in all sites with initial PD ≥ 4 mm, following mechanical periodontal therapy, in patients who switch to IQOS use compared to those who continue cigarette smoking.
- Clinical Attachment Level (CAL) Change Over Time (Mean CAL in All Subjects With Initial PD ≥ 4 mm) - Descriptive Statistics [ Time Frame: From baseline to 3 months and 6 months ]Clinical attachment level (CAL) is the measured distance from cementoenamel junction (CEJ) to the bottom of pocket using a periodontal probe. Mean CAL change from baseline will be measured in sites with initial PD ≥ 4 mm, following mechanical periodontal therapy, in patients who switch to IQOS use compared to those who continue cigarette smoking.
- Full-mouth Periodontal PD Change Over Time. [ Time Frame: From baseline to 3 months and 6 months ]Pocket depth (PD) is the distance from the gingival margin to which a probe penetrates into the pocket. Change in mean full-mouth PD will be measured, following mechanical periodontal therapy, in patients who switch to IQOS use compared to those who continue cigarette smoking.
- Full-mouth Clinical Attachment Level (CAL) Over Time. [ Time Frame: From baseline to 3 months and 6 months ]Clinical attachment level (CAL) is the measured distance from cementoenamel junction (CEJ) to the bottom of pocket using a periodontal probe. Change in mean full-mouth CAL will be measured, following mechanical periodontal therapy, in patients who switch to IQOS use compared to those who continue cigarette smoking.
- Peridontal PD Reduction. [ Time Frame: From baseline to 3 months and 6 months ]Pocket depth (PD) is the distance from the gingival margin to which a probe penetrates into the pocket. Mean PD change will be measured in sites with initial PD < 4 mm, and with initial PD of 4 mm to <5 mm, 5 mm to < 6 mm, 6 mm to < 7 mm and ≥ 7 mm.
- Clinical Attachment Level Improvement [ Time Frame: From baseline to 3 months and 6 months ]Clinical attachment level (CAL) is the measured distance from cementoenamel junction (CEJ) to the bottom of pocket using a periodontal probe. Mean CAL change will be measured in sites with initial PD < 4 mm, and with initial PD of 4 mm to <5 mm, 5 mm to < 6 mm, 6 mm to < 7 mm and ≥ 7 mm.
- Number of Periodontally Diseased Sites. [ Time Frame: From baseline to 3 months and 6 months ]Pocket depth (PD) is the distance from the gingival margin to which a probe penetrates into the pocket. Any change will be recorded in the number of periodontally diseased sites with Pocket Depth (PD) < 4 mm, with PD 4 mm to < 5mm, with PD 5 mm to < 6 mm , with PD 6 mm to < 7 mm and with PD ≥ 7 mm. PD is the distance from the gingival margin to which a probe penetrates into the pocket.
- Gingival Inflammation [ Time Frame: From baseline to 3 months and 6 months ]
Gingival inflammation will be measured by calculating the gingival index (GI) score for each target tooth.
The gingival index (GI) scores each site on a 0 to 3 scale, with 0 being normal and 3 being severe inflammation characterized by edema, redness, swelling, and spontaneous bleeding.
- Tooth Mobility [ Time Frame: From baseline to 3 months and 6 months ]
Tooth mobility will be graded according to Miller's mobility index (MMI), which is the most widely accepted method for routine clinical examinations of tooth mobility. The tooth is held between the metallic handles of two instruments and moved in the buccolingual or buccopalatal direction, and the moved distance is visually estimated by the person conducting the examination.
Grade 0: Physiologic movement within 0.2 mm; Grade 1: Slight mobility, tooth can be moved 0.2 - 1 mm labiolingually; Grade 2: Moderate mobility, tooth can be moved 1 - 2 mm labiolingually or mesiodistally; Grade 3: Severe mobility, tooth can be moved more than 2 mm labiolingually or mesiodistally, or ability to depress the tooth in a vertical direction.
- Presence of Plaque on Tooth Surfaces in Full Mouth [ Time Frame: From baseline to 3 months and 6 months ]Plaque will be measured using the plaque control record (PCR) percentage.
- Inflammatory Status in Periodontal Pockets [ Time Frame: From baseline to 3 months and 6 months ]
Gum inflammation was measured using percentage of teeth bleeding on probing (BOP).
BOP in full mouth was measured to assess inflammatory status in the pocket and was assessed as YES or NO of bleeding at 6 sites per tooth. Gently probing (approximately 20 g pressure), the bleeding site within 30 seconds was assessed as YES.
- Concentrations of Urinary Nicotine Equivalents (NEQ) [ Time Frame: From baseline to 3 months and 6 months ]This biomarker of exposure to a tobacco smoke constituent will be measured in patients who switch to IQOS use and patients who continue cigarette smoking. Concentrations measured in urine and expressed as concentration adjusted for creatinine (mg/g creat).
- Concentrations of Total 4-(Methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanol (Total NNAL) [ Time Frame: From baseline to 3 months and 6 months ]This biomarker of exposure to a tobacco smoke constituent will be measured in patients who switch to IQOS use and patients who continue cigarette smoking. Concentrations measured in urine and expressed as concentration adjusted for creatinine (pg/mg creat).
- Concentrations of 2-cyanoethylmercapturic Acid (CEMA) [ Time Frame: From baseline to 3 months and 6 months ]This biomarker of exposure to a tobacco smoke constituent will be measured in patients who switch to IQOS use and patients who continue cigarette smoking. Concentrations measured in urine and expressed as concentration adjusted for creatinine (ng/mg creat).
- Use of Tobacco or Nicotine-containing Products in Patients Switching to IQOS Use and Patients Who Continue Cigarette Smoking. [ Time Frame: From baseline to 6 months ]Self-reported use of tobacco or nicotine containing products will be measured over the study in patients switching to IQOS use and patients who continue cigarette smoking.
