Indian Journal of Dental Research. 2009 Jul-Sept; 20(3): 374-376.http://imsear.searo.who.int/handle/123456789/139752Aggressive periodontitis (AgP) comprises a group of rare, often severe, rapidly progressive forms of periodontitis mostly characterized by an early age of clinical manifestation and a distinctive tendency for cases to aggregate in families. Abnormal dental morphology and position have been associated with severe periodontal diseases. The purpose of this paper is to report a case of multiple dental anomalies associated with AgP. This paper reports a case of unusual association of multiple dental anomalies to AgP. Clinical findings and history led to the diagnosis of localized AgP, and radiologically. It was associated with multiple dental anomalies, especially supernumerary roots. Thus, the present case represents a very interesting demonstration of AgP association with supernumerary roots and the nature of this association merits further investigations.enAggressive periodontitisfusionsupernumerary rootsAbnormalities, Multiple --pathologyAggressive Periodontitis --complicationsAggressive Periodontitis --pathologyAggressive Periodontitis --therapyAlveolar Bone Loss --complicationsAlveolar Bone Loss --pathologyAlveolar Bone Loss --radiographyDentition, PermanentFemaleHumansMandibular Diseases --complicationsMandibular Diseases --pathologyMandibular Diseases --therapyTooth Abnormalities --complicationsTooth Abnormalities --pathologyTooth Crown --abnormalitiesTooth Crown --pathologyTooth ExtractionTooth Root --abnormalitiesTooth Root --pathologyTooth, Supernumerary --complicationsTooth, Supernumerary --pathologyTreatment OutcomeYoung AdultMultiple dental anomalies and aggressive periodontitis: A coincidence or an association.Article
