Resumo: | Objectives: This research was created as a review on the topic and conducted research among university students, by using a questionnaire to assess the use of EC’s and knowledge of risks and oral changes caused by them. Materials and Methods: A review was made on the topic, searched in the Medline and Latindex databases, period from 2011 to 2023. An exploratory and cross-sectional research was made by collecting data obtained with use of a semi-structured Google Forms questionnaire. Results: In total 486 responses were obtained, with 114 (23.46%) respondents declaring they were smokers and 83 users of EC; 92.77% used nicotine; 7.22% recognized the EC as being the “door of entry” to smoking CC; 49.4% had never smoked before using these devices; and 26.5% declared that the EC was a strategy to reduce the use of CC. The most frequently declared effects related to EC use were yellow-brown staining of teeth (35.53%), absence of saliva (30.12%) and ulcers (22.51%); 54.22% of the users had never searched information regarding the effects on oral health. Conclusions: The results demonstrate the need to expand information among the population, particularly young people, with the purpose of preventing an increase in the use of EC. |

Materiales y Métodos: Se realizó una revisión utilizando las bases de datos Medline y Latindex, en el período de 2011 a 2023. Se llevó a cabo una investigación exploratoria y transversal a través de los datos obtenidos mediante un cuestionario semiestructurado en Google Forms. Resultados: Se obtuvieron 486 respuestas, con 114 entrevistados que eran fumadores declarados y 83 usuarios exclusivos de CE, de los cuales el 92,77% contenía nicotina. El 7,22% reconoció que el CE era la "puerta de entrada" al cigarrillo convencional; el 49,4% nunca había fumado antes de usar estos dispositivos; el 26,5% afirmó que el CE fue una estrategia para reducir el consumo de cigarrillos convencionales. Los efectos bucales declarados con mayor frecuencia relacionados con su uso fueron manchas (35,53%), falta de saliva (30,12%) y aftas/heridas (22,51%). El 54,22% de los usuarios nunca buscó información sobre los efectos en la salud bucal. Los resultados muestran la necesidad de ampliar la información para la población, especialmente para adolescentes y jóvenes, con el fin de evitar el aumento en el uso de CE y, por ende, del tabaquismo.Objetivos: Foi realizada uma revisão sobre o tema e uma pesquisa através de questionário, entre estudantes universitários, para avaliar a utilização dos CE e o conhecimento dos riscos e alterações bucais provocadas pelo seu uso.

Os efeitos bucais declarados, mais frequentemente relacionados ao seu uso foram manchas (35,53%), falta de saliva (30,12%) e aftas/feridas (22,51%); 54,22% dos usuários nunca procurou informações a respeito dos efeitos na saúde bucal. Os resultados demonstram a necessidade de ampliar a informação para a população, principalmente para adolescentes e jovens, a fim de evitar o aumento na utilização de CE e, consequentemente, do tabagismo.Research, Society and Development2024-02-03info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/4491310.33448/rsd-v13i2.44913Research, Society and Development; Vol. 13 No. 2; e0813244913Research, Society and Development; Vol. 13 Núm. 2; e0813244913Research, Society and Development; v. 13 n. 2; e08132449132525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIenghttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/44913/35879Copyright (c) 2024 Sofia de Carvalho Oliveira; Natália Araújo de Moraes; Maria Luiza de Moraes Oliveira; Andréia Salvador de Castrohttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessOliveira, Sofia de Carvalho Moraes, Natália Araújo de Oliveira, Maria Luiza de Moraes Castro, Andréia Salvador de 2024-03-04T09:47:20Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/44913Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-03-04T09:47:20Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false |
