Pattern of tooth loss in Nigerian juvenile and plaque-induced chronic periodontitis patients.

The aim of this study was to determine the pattern of tooth loss in chronic periodontitis patients and hence help the clinician to plan preventive treatment against the loss of these teeth. Dental record notes of all the subjects, the periapical radiographs and actual intra-oral examinations of the juvenile periodontitis patients were done to determine the number and types of tooth loss. It was observed that the pattern of tooth loss in both groups of chronic periodontitis (plaque Induced periodontitis (PIP) and juvenile periodontitis (JP) was different as the most frequently lost teeth in PIP was incisors and lower incisor in JP while the least lost in PIP was the upper canines and the lower premolars in JP.
