Abstract
Poor oral hygiene, combined with adverse local and systemic factors, may lead to more severe periodontal diseases.
A 17-year-old girl with tooth and gum problems was admitted to our clinic. Intraoral examination revealed that oral hygiene was inadequate and there was a severe calculus extending up to the occlusal surface (approximately 20 mm x 12 mm). Her medical anamnesis showed no significant findings, but she had oral respiration and had difficulty in communicating with her environment. Oral hygiene education was given and debridement was performed at regular intervals. Follow-up sessions, it was observed that she was satisfied with treatment, paid attention to her oral hygiene and her self-confidence increased. The patient was referred to the Orthodontics and Ear-Nose-Throat clinics to prevent recurrence of problems after satisfactory recovery. 
Even with good oral hygiene training and initial periodontal treatment, severe periodontal problems can be solved and quality of life can be recovered.
