The objective of this investigation was to characterize clinical and microbiologically a sample of Colombian patients with Generalized Aggressive Periodontitis (GAgP). In this cross sectional study, 40 subjects 30 years with GAgP who attended the dental clinics of the Universidad de Antioquia in Medellín, Colombia were invited to participate from February 2012 to August 2013.
