Abstract
Screening for aggressive periodontitis (AP) is important since it can occur before, during, or after orthodontic treatment. Orthodontists need to acquire competence and confidence to treat such cases. The success of treatment in these cases requires an interdisciplinary collaboration. For a successful treatment outcome, orthodontists need to work side by side with other specialists. Periodontists play an important role as stable dentition relies on a healthy periodontium. Periodontists provide detailed documentation regarding periodontal examination, diagnosis, prognosis, treatment, and maintenance of such cases. The case described here is an atypical case that requires an interdisciplinary approach and management of the patient's cooperation and expectations. This report shows the possibility of orthodontic treatment in patients with localized AP.
