ABSTRACT
Periodontitis has remarkably similar pathobiology to Rheumatoid Arthritis [RA]. In both these diseases, progression consists of continuing presence of high levels of proinflammatory cytokines. Further more, low levels of Tissue Inhibitors of Metalloproteinases [TIMP] and high levels of Matrix Metalloproteinases [MMP], and PGE-2 secreted by macrophages, fibroblast and other resident and migrating inflammatory cells characterize the active stage of both diseases. This submitted work depicts an evidence based report of a female patient with rheumatoid arthritis and aggressive periodontitis
