dc.description.abstractIntroduction. Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome (RTS) is a rare disorder affecting I of 300,000 people, characterized by growth, mental and motor retardation, small stature, broad thumbs and toes, characteristic face, high-arched palate, and recurrent respiratory infections.Case report. the present report describes the periodontal and immunological status of a 14-year-old female patient with RTS. Probing depth, clinical attachment level, bleeding on probing, and radiographic evaluation were performed. Periodontal examination revealed severe attachment loss in incisors and molars and generalized bleeding on probing. Periodontal treatment consisted of scaling and root planing and oral hygiene instructions. Periodontal treatment resulted in resolution of gingival inflammation and pocket depth reductions. the association of periodontal disease and RTS is previously undescribed.Conclusion. This case report underscores the importance of periodontal clinical diagnosis and the possibility of successful periodontal treatment in RTS patients.en
