Treating chronic adult periodontitis and managing the legacy of extensive bone loss. Hafeez Ahmed

This case offers a great opportunity to look at multi-disciplinary treatment from start  to fi nish and then to follow the supportive  periodontal therapy for a further 15 years.  Readers can appreciate the treatment in  its entirety whilst refl ecting on individual  elements which they might want to deliver  themselves if and when they are given the  opportunity to work in a multi-disciplinary  team.  This patient was referred to the author, a Specialist Periodontist in 2007. She was 54 years old. Her main  concerns were bleeding gums, mobile teeth, drifting of  teeth and a dark appearance to her smile.
