Abstract
The presence of gingivitis and calculus was studied in 1848 Marines smoking cigarettes only and 273 smoking pipes only. While there was no difference as regards the incidence of gingivitis, a significantly greater deposit of calculus was observed in pipe smokers than in cigarette smokers.Keywords
