[The periodontal-prophylactic effect of the toothpaste "Silka". 2. Effects of circulation-stimulations additives on the periodontium in relation to age and sex and in smokers based on Kötzschke's periodontal index].
On subdiving the patients into age-groups, it was found that the relative improvement in the 46--55 year-old patients amounted only to 18% as compared to nearly 27% in patients of age-groups in which hormonal influences are likely to occur. The sex-linked differences in the periodontal condition became evident by higher initial values for the inflammatory component and a low relative improvement (25.53%) in women than in men (28.25%). The relative improvement in smokers (43.49%) as compared to that in non-smokers (23.01%) demonstrated the beneficial effect of benzylnicotinate on the nicotine-induced vasoconstriction.
