Tratamento ortodôntico em pacientes com periodontite agressiva: considerações clínicas

Abstract

ORTHODONTIC TREATMENT IN PATIENTS WITH AGRESSVE PERIODONTITIS: CLINICAL CONSIDERATIONSLocalized aggressive periodontitis and generalized aggressiveperiodontitis are characterized by rapid attachment loss and bone destruction, noncontributory medical history and involvement of individuals primarily around 30 years old. The attachment loss can result in complex esthetic and functional problems, requiring the adjunction of periodontal and especially orthodontic treatments to achieve good results. The majority of the papers available in the literature relating tothis subject are single case reports and there are a lack of high quality case-control studies or randomized controlled trials. To identify the best scientific evidence and incorporate them into practice, a scientific paper was made to elucidate the best clinical approaches against aggressive periodontitis in orthodontic treatment. A literature review limited to case reports was considered the best way to substantially contribute to the knowledge of the clinical approaches on patients with aggressiveperiodontitis who underwent orthodontic treatment.
