Conservative Surgical Management of Localized Aggressive Periodontitis: A Case Report
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 6
Abstract
The common form of periodontitis which generally occurs in the adult population above the age of 35 years is chronic periodontitis. When a rapid alveolar destruction is observed in the patient, age below 25 years without any local and systemic contributing factors, an aggressive form of periodontitis can be suspected. Although familial aggregation was generally observed among the patients, the mode of inheritance varies in different geographical location, population, and race. Further, when a presented patient has severe attachment loss and bone loss confined to permanent first molars and incisors, it is suggestive of localized aggressive periodontitis. Here, we presented a case of localized aggressive periodontitis which was managed by conservative flap surgery without the use of any bone graft materials
