Abstract

The present case, of a child with an idiopathic immune deficiency and aggressive periodontitis in the primary dentition, serves as an example for the treatment considerations in these cases. Extraction of all the primary teeth proved to be the most adequate treatment. It allowed the child to eat properly and prevented unwanted infections that could endanger the life of the child. The newly erupted permanent teeth have been subjected to careful oral hygiene, clorhexidine topical applications, and have mild gingival inflammation and no attachment loss.
