Abstract:
The aim of this case report is to describe the importance of early diagnosis and treatment to prevent the progression of localized aggressive periodontitis. A 16 years old systemically healthy female patient with a chief complaint of increased mobility and spacing in relation to mandibular anteriors was successfully treated with initial non-surgical periodontal therapy and antimicrobial therapy (as an adjunct therapy), followed by surgical intervention. Patient was followed-up for 6 months. Patient education to maintain adequate oral hygiene and good patient compliance along with periodontal treatment led to successful preservation of esthetics and function.
