Abstract:

Aggressive periodontitis（AgP）is a type of periodontitis with early onset and rapid progression，which mostly affects young adults. The most common problems found in AgP patients include severe periodontal destruction and pathologic tooth migration（PTM），which impair function and aesthetics of the stomatognathic system. Effective orthodontic treatment not only provides an acceptable functional and aesthetic occlusion，and corrects traumatic occlusion，but also stimulates rebuilding of the original periodontal architecture and achieves long-term stability. Hence，it is of utmost importance for an orthodontist to have knowledge and ability to manage the case of aggressive periodontitis with multidisciplinary approach，create harmonious cooperation with the periodontist，initiate the orthodontic treatment after the achievement of proper plaque control，and stick to the strategy of proper design of active treatment，placement with light force，strict control of oral hygiene，regular periodontal maintenance and careful monitoring of the whole course.
