Abstract:
Three unusual cases of Papillon-Lefèvre syndrome with late onset of features and relatively mild periodontal disease are presented. These examples confirm some of the late onset of features and mild periodontal presentation of a previous case report. Bacteriologic associations, polymorphonuclear leukocyte chemotactic, phagocytic, and bactericidal activity, and therapeutics with regard to this syndrome are discussed.
