摘要

Parkinson’s disease(PD)is an idiopathic progressive neurological disorder characterised by resting tremor,restrictions in mobility and muscular rigidity that can lead to problems in maintaining oral health.Here we report a case where crown lengthening surgeries were successfully performed in a PD patient for complete oral rehabilitation.Certain special considerations that are required before and during periodontal surgery in such patients are also elucidated.Often dentists and PD patients are reluctant to embark on complex dental procedures resulting in a compromised outcome.However,early intervention along with proper education and motivation of these patients can aid in achieving satisfactory results.
