This study aims to point out the importance of diagnosis and treatment of periodontitis according to the latest methods in a patient with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), obesity, and diabetes mellitus. After a thorough history, clinical examination of the periodontal tissue, and X-ray examination, a diagnosis of aggressive periodontitis was established. An individual treatment plan was developed for the patient according to current scientific knowledge in evidence-based medicine. Immediately after subgingival treatment, the patient was indicated for systemic antibiotic therapy consisting of amoxicillin in combination with metronidazole as the gold standard of antibiotic therapy in the treatment of periodontitis. During the re-evaluation, we observed a decrease in probing depth, clinical attachment gain, and a decrease in bleeding on probing (BOP). After completing the active periodontal treatment, there were only three sites with a depth of 5 mm requiring increased attention, all of them with a negative BOP result.

Keywords: aggressive periodontitis, periodontal pocket, deep scaling and root planing, systemic antibiotic treatment, recall
