Résumé
The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of aggressive periodontitis found in patients attending Altamash Dental Hospital. Aggressive periodontitis was diagnosed using standard protocol. Aggressive Periodontitis was evaluated on the basis of localized and generalized condition which was further examined by taking OPG and peri-apical radiographs. 1000 patients were examined and treated from February 2009 to March 2010 by completing periodontal evaluation proforma and by measuring pocket depth by periodontal probe. Results showed higher prevalence of localized aggressive periodontitis [71%] compared to generalized aggressive periodontitis [29%] and localized aggressive periodontitis group was found more in smaller age group patients when compared to generalized aggressive periodontitis. There was no statistically significant difference in male/female proportions
