Abstract
Generalized periodontitis is a severe periodontal disease characterized by rapid periodontal destruction in healthy persons. Little information is available on the long-term occlusal stability for generalized periodontitis. In this case report, we demonstrated that judicial orthodontic can be useful to improve long-term stability of occlusal function and healthy periodontal tissue for generalized periodontitis. This report describes the treatment of an adult female patient with severe crowding, large overjet, and occlusal collapse due to the loss of anterior guidance with generalized periodontitis, treated for total of 19 months with Orthodontics therapy for restoration of occlusion and alignment of arches.
