Bone Level

A 26-year-old man with an aggressive periodontitis sought for orthodontic treatment to improve the appearance of his smile. He presented with generalised anterior spacing, missing lowerleft central incisor and deep traumatic bite. He was treated successfully with a combination of orthodontic and periodontal treatment. After 18 months of orthodontic treatment and follow upby the periodontist, his alignment of teeth was improved, a stable occlusion was achieved, and occlusal trauma was prevented. As a result, the patient’s smile appearance and selfconfidence were improved. Orthodontic tooth movement is not only to correct the alignment of his teeth but also to improve the bone level especially at the anterior region. This case report shows the successful treatment outcome in aggressive periodontitis patient which requires good collaboration between the orthodontist and the periodontist.

Aim: Generalized aggressive periodontitis (G-AgP) is the most severe and destructive form of periodontitis.It usually starts under the age of 30 and it is difficult to recover tissue health with sole periodontal treatment. In this case was to evaluate effect of full-mouth ozone treatment on clinical parameters and blood CRP levels in a G-AgP patient. Methodology: A 23 year-old male patient was diagnosed as G-AgP.Clinical attachment levels (CAL), plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), bleeding on probing (BoP) and blood C-reactive protein (CRP) levels were recorded.Full mouth scaling and root planning and ozone application were performed. Results: Baseline mean full-mouth PI,GI scores and CAL were 3,2 and 5.2mm respectively. 42% of sites showed a CAL of 4-6mm and 26% showed ≥7mm. 72% of the sites exhibited BOP.15 teeth had CAL ≥6mm. After treatments, PI and GI scores were both 1.0.  19% of sites had 4-6mm and 16% of sites were ≥7mm CAL; 12% exhibited BOP. Six teeth had CAL ≥6mm.Baseline CRP was 9 mg/dL and increased to 34 during treatments and decreased to 2 mg/dL after 4 weeks. Conclusion: Within limitations of this case report, it could be suggested that monitoring CRP and subgingival ozone application might be beneficial in treating GAgP.

Detailed Assessment

Gingival overgrowth is the enlargement of gingival tissues and has various underlying aetiological factors. This case report highlights the multifactorial aetiology of gingival overgrowth for a patient who was prescribed an immunosuppressive strategy following renal transplantation, had poor levels of oral hygiene and a diet deficient in fruit and vegetables. The report highlights the importance of a detailed assessment to identify all underlying factors and demonstrates how a referral to the specialist services for gingival overgrowth led to a diagnosis of vitamin C deficiency. It also illustrates how both patient engagement and a conservative cause-related therapy can achieve a satisfactory resolution without any surgical intervention. CPD/Clinical Relevance: This case report highlights the importance of a detailed assessment to diagnose all relevant underlying aetiological factors involved in the development of gingival overgrowth. It also illustrates how both patient engagement and a conservative cause-related therapy can achieve a satisfactory resolution of gingival overgrowth without any surgical intervention.

The present case, of a child with an idiopathic immune deficiency and aggressive periodontitis in the primary dentition, serves as an example for the treatment considerations in these cases. Extraction of all the primary teeth proved to be the most adequate treatment. It allowed the child to eat properly and prevented unwanted infections that could endanger the life of the child. The newly erupted permanent teeth have been subjected to careful oral hygiene, clorhexidine topical applications, and have mild gingival inflammation and no attachment loss.

Modifiable Factors

The aim of the present review was to identify the presence of periodontal diseases and the relative importance of known risk factors in Latin American countries. The retrieved data are sparse and inconsistent, lacking information for the majority of the countries. Gingivitis is ubiquitous in the region, affecting all ages independently of the socioeconomic background. The extension of bleeding may vary greatly, ranging from 40% to 70% of sites. The prevalence of aggressive periodontitis is higher in Latin America than in industrialized countries. Prevalence ranges from 0.3% to 4.5%, and the localized form is the less prevalent. The prevalence of chronic periodontitis is high, with a large variation (40-80%) probably due to differences in methodology and diagnostic criteria. Regional differences may be relevant. Known risk factors are present in the populations studied. Non-modifiable factors such as age, gender and genetics have been associated in Brazilian and Chilean populations. Tobacco smoking and diabetes are relevant risk factors. The importance of socioeconomic status, although present as a risk factor, has been largely underestimated. Oral hygiene is extremely deficient in the area although it is a cultural habit in most populations. It can be concluded that periodontal diseases are highly prevalent in Latin American populations. Its prevalence and extent are associated with known risk factors. Oral hygiene habits are deficient. Well designed epidemiological studies with external validity are needed.

Dyskeratosis congenita (DC) is an uncommon disease characterized by nail dystrophy, cutaneous hyperpigmentation, leukoplakia, pancytopenia, and malignant transformation. There can be some oral and dental changes such as oral leukoplakia, increase in tooth decay, hypodontia, thinning of enamel layer, aggressive periodontitis, intraoral brown pigmentation, missing tooth, taurodontism, and blunted roots. Most of cases belong to dermatology or pediatrics department. There are few reports about dentistry. The aim of this report is to lay emphasis on this fatal syndrome among dentists about the multisystem findings and oro-dental changes. Thus, this information may aid dentists in early diagnosis. A case of 21-year-old male diagnosed with DC is reported.

History Of

Eruptive lingual papillitis is a common benign disorder manifested by inflammation of fungiform papillae on the dorsolateral surface of the tongue. Several variants of lingual papillitis have been reported since 1997, most or all of them with painful erythematous papules. Here we report a case of 6 years old girl child with non-painful severe variant form of eruptive lingual papillitis presented to the emergency department. The entire dorsal surface of the tongue was surfaced by 2-3mm by multiple erythematous papules and some with a white or yellowish colour. The papules were excessively inflamed, pigmented, aggregated, and crusted. The cause was idiopathic which resolved within ten days. The parent and patient were reassured with advice to practice oral hygiene. This is a rare case report describing non-painful lingual papillitis without a history of any prior episodes.
