He X.L., and Chen H.F., 2024, Comprehensive treatment plan for long-term periodontal therapy and dental reconstruction: A decade-long case report, International Journal of Clinical Case Reports, 14(1): 1-13 (doi: 10.5376/ijccr.2024.14.0001)

This study meticulously documents a patient's decade-long periodontal treatment and dental reconstruction journey. The patient had been suffering from periodontal disease since middle school, which led to the loss of multiple teeth and significantly impacted his quality of life. After deciding to undergo comprehensive treatment, this study formulated a comprehensive treatment plan that included periodontal disease treatment, implantation of prosthetics in the tooth loss areas, and dental crown repair. During the treatment process, this study focused on the recovery of periodontal health, the selection and fitting of implants, and the full restoration of oral function. Continuous evaluation of the patient's oral condition revealed significant improvements, including stabilization of the alveolar bone, enhancement of occlusal force, and aesthetic improvement. This case analysis highlights the importance of personalized treatment plans and the necessity of long-term follow-up for successful treatment. Despite the significant therapeutic effects achieved, this study is limited to the observation of a single case; therefore, future research should expand the sample size, compare different treatment plans, and conduct long-term follow-up studies.
