Abstract

In India, gutkha is one of the most popular smokeless tobacco being consumed by people of different socioeconomic groups, because of its less cost and easy availability. Chewing of gutka has a strong impact on oral hygiene and is also a risk factor for periodontal disease. Gutka chewing causes increased gingival recession and clinical attachment loss. The present review was conducted to assess the effect of gutka chewing on periodontal health
