Summary

Electronic cigarettes are battery-powered vaporizers which have a similar feel to tobacco smoking. They do not produce cigarette smoke but rather an aerosol, which is frequently referred to as vapor. E-cigarettes are marketed as less harmful alternatives to smoking. Use and awareness of these devices has grown exponentially in recent years, with millions of people currently using them.

The benefits and risks of electronic cigarette use are uncertain. There is no research on the acute oral effects of electronic cigarette in the scientific literature and no hungarian epidemiological survey has been performed in this topic.

Regulation of electronic cigarettes varies across countries in the European Union, ranging from no regulation to banning them entirely.

The investigators research could help to integrate the regulation of this device in Hungary and in the EU as well.

The measurement of acute oral effects of e-cigarette and a hungarian epidemiological survey would be novel in this topic.
