Abstract: Objective: To investigate the changes of tooth loss and alveolar bone in the treatment of patients with generalized aggressive periodontitis (GAgP) as well as its potential risk factors. Methods: The clinical data of 36 patients with GAgP who were admitted in our hospital between March 2017 and March 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. 472 teeth were treated with basic treatment. The clinic attachment loss (CAL), depth of probing (PD), bleeding index (CI), alveolar crest gray value (HU), and alveolar crest height (%) were detected and measured by cone beam CT(CBCT) before and 3 months after treatment to determine the incidence of shedding and risk factors. The correlation of shedding risk factors was evaluated by linear regression models. Results: The BI, CAL, and PD before and after treatment in all patients were significant improved (P<0.05). The total alveolar crest height in 3 months after treatment was significantly higher than that before treatment (P<0.05). The difference of alveolar HU value was statistically significant compared with that before treatment (P<0.05). According to the single factor linear regression analysis, smoking was the main cause of tooth loss in GAgP patients. Conclusion: Patients with GAgP can be effectively improved in tooth loss and alveolar bone loss after treatment.
