Smoking status was biochemically verified (salivary cotinine). Clinical parameters, including recession depth and width, keratinized tissue width, and percentage of root coverage, were assessed at baseline, 3 months, and 12 months postoperatively.

Root coverage percentage was significantly higher in non\u2010smokers at 12 months, with 87.5% achieving root coverage compared with 66.6% in smokers (\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u00a0=\u00a00.024).

We followed two groups of patients, smokers and non\u2010smokers, for 1\u00a0year after they received the same treatment, which involved repositioning the gum and adding a tissue graft from the palate. At first, both groups showed good early healing, but differences emerged over time. By 12 months, smokers showed more return of gum recession and achieved less complete root coverage than non\u2010smokers. Although most non\u2010smokers maintained full coverage of the treated tooth, this was true for far fewer smokers. Both groups did show some healthy growth of the firm gum tissue around the tooth, but this did not offset the long\u2010term disadvantage seen in smokers. These findings suggest that the harmful effects of smoking may not be obvious in the early months after surgery but become clearer as healing continues. Understanding this gradual difference can help dentists to guide patients more effectively, especially those who smoke, by setting realistic expectations and highlighting how smoking may limit the long\u2010term success of treatment.<\/jats:p>\n
