Data were collected from total of 326 subjects in their forties and fifties by using questionnaire and examination of periodontal health status. Results were analyzed by using IBM SPSS Statistics 19.0. The smoking status were statistically significant to gingival index (p＜0.01), pocket depth (p＜0.001), and clinical attachment loss (p＜0.001). Smoking amount per day were statistically significant to gingival index (p＜0.05), pocket depth (p＜0.01), and clinical attachment loss (p＜0.001). Duration of smoking were statistically significant to gingival index (p＜0.05), pocket depth (p＜0.01), and clinical attachment loss (p＜0.001). Drinking cycle were statistically significant to gingival index (p＜0.05), and clinical attachment loss (p＜0.05). It is investigated that smoking (p＜0.05) influence on clinical attachment loss. Dental care institute needs to make patients be aware of the fact that excessive smoking and drinking affect the periodontal health status for prevention of periodontal disease and maintenance of oral health.
