Abstract: The paper presents the results of a cytomorphological analysis of the cells of the buccal epithelium of smoking and non-smoking young people, which made it possible to evaluate the reliability of the influence of the smoking factor on the morphometric characteristics of oral mucosa cells. As a result of the analysis, a significant difference was found between the average values of the nuclear-cytoplasmic ratio in the cells of smoking and non-smoking students. The smoking factor has a significant effect on the structural cellular morphogenesis, which is aimed at reducing the area of the cytoplasm and increasing the area of the cell nucleus, the influence of the factor is estimated at 90 %. Such dynamics of nuclear cells may indicate an increase in cell proliferative activity, which occurs against the background of a chronic load from the components of tobacco smoke.

Key words: buccal epithelium, nuclear-cytoplasmic ratio.
