Abstract
The etiology and the pathogenesis, the diagnosis and the therapy of adult periodontitis (AP) are reviewed. Data from epidemiologic studies performed in recent years give a better knowledge of AP-progression. Successful long-term maintenance care give the proof that individual tooth preservation is life-long possible.
