Abstract:
Management of patients affected with aggressive periodontitis is complicated by several poorly understood etiological and modifying factors that create difficulty in establishing a universal treatment recommendation. The goal of this manuscript is to underscore the complexity of therapy and to provide some guidelines in the decision-making process and interdisciplinary therapy. A dynamic approach is presented to formulate strategies in diagnosis and treatment planning that is both patient-and site-specific.
