Abstract
THREE UNUSUAL CASES OF PAPILLON-LEFEVRE syndrome with late onset of fe atures and relatively mild periodontal disease are presented. These ex amples confirm some of the late onset of features and mild periodontal presentation of a previous case report. Bacteriologic associations, p olymorphonuclear leukocyte chemotactic, phagocytic, and bactericidal a ctivity, and therapeutics with regard to this syndrome are discussed.
