Health and education is an important mainstay for all individual in today's world and serves as the basis of economic productivity. The state of the epidemic of tobacco use in India was comprehensively described in the recently completed Global Adult Tobacco Survey (GATS). Tobacco use in India is more varied than in most countries. India is the world's third largest tobacco-growing country. Anti tobacco counseling is best suited for Indian scenario because it is inexpensive and effective. Dental practice in the 21st century should ideally move from a restorative orientation to one of broader promotion of health and well being and it would be unconscionable not to include aggressive tobacco intervention in that paradigm.Keywords
