“…This compared with 40% in non-Down's mentally handicapped and 6% in controls. Additional cases of Papillon-Lefevre syndrome were described by Dekker & Jansen (1958), Ingle (1959), Hawes (1960), Hall (1963, Coccia, McDonald & Mitchell (1966), Schaffer & Pearlstein (1967), Smith & Rosenzweig (1967), Galanter & Bradford (1969) and Giansanti, Hrabak & Waldron (1973). In an exceptionally well-documented study, Gorlin, Sedano & Anderson (1964a, b) reviewed the literature on the syndrome and analysed statistically forty-six cases.…”

A review of the literature on juvenile periodontitis has been undertaken. This paper traces the historical development of the appreciation of the condition. Some of the numerous early attempts to define a systemic background are noted, and the concept of 'periodontosis' and its subsequent influence, e.g. on epidemiological and clinical studies are discussed. The refining over the last 20 years of the concept of aggressive periodontal disease in the young is recorded. The patterns of bone loss in juvenile periodontitis and some forms of treatment are presented, together with evidence on its histopathology. Recent research has tended to concentrate on the microbiology and immunological background of juvenile periodontitis and a number of these studies are discussed.

“…Papillon‐Lefèvre syndrome (PLS) is an autosomal recessive trait characterized by the presence of palmoplantar hyperkeratosis and premature loss of the deciduous and permanent teeth [9]. The periodontal lesions appear early after the start of the deciduous dental elements in the arch [6]. Periodontal tissues are inflamed with evident signs of blending of the gums, presence of periodontal pockets, tooth mobility, loosening without signs of root resorption and anomalies in the order of their eruption.…”

Papillon‐Lefèvre syndrome (PLS) is a rare disorder characterized by diffuse palmoplantar erythematous, fissured hyperkeratosis, and aggressive periodontal disease that starts in the early periods of childhood. Periodontal disease occurs with the early loss of deciduous teeth at the age of 2 to 4 years, followed by the loss of permanent teeth during adolescence. Prosthodontics management of PLS patients is very complex and sometimes requires invasive therapeutic treatments. Early diagnosis is essential for correct treatment management avoiding the possibility that patients are early edentulous. Management could be a conventional periodontal treatment and pharmacological therapy but in severe cases, digital techniques, could be help the clinician for increased patient comfort and minimized tissue damage.

“…The fundamental factors are chiefly related to changes in endocrine, immune, and connective tissue status. 4 - 6 These modifications can be related to diverse pathologies and syndromes that produce periodontal disease either as a principal manifestation or by provoking a preexisting condition related to local factors. 1 2 This article describes a clinical presentation of two brothers diagnosed with PLS.…”

Papillon-Lefèvre is an autosomal recessive syndrome that starts in early periods of childhood. Characteristic features include palmar plantar hyperkeratosis, aggressive periodontal disease, and a tendency for dry and chopped skin, thin and sparse hair. Patients show signs of premature tooth loss at the age of 2 to 4 years, which is then followed by the loss of permanent dentition during adolescence. The presence of both skin and oral lesions in this syndrome differentiates this unusual genodermatosis from other pathology of palmoplantar keratoderma (PPK). The etiopathogenesis of this syndrome is somewhat obscure; however, immunologic, genetic, and possible bacterial etiologies have been proposed. The dental practitioner is often the first to diagnose the disease, as there is a significant degree of periodontal breakdown that is involved at an early age. This report presents a clinical presentation of two brothers detected with Papillon-Lefèvre syndrome (PLS).How to cite this article: Fageeh HN.
