This work was done to study dermatoglyphic features in fifty juvenile periodontitis subjects as comparised to other control group of fifty of non juvenile periodontitis subjects, 42 females and 8 males, ranging in age 18 to 24 years. The results of this study showed that: 1 - Significant increase in the frequency of whorls on the thumb of juvenile periodontitis subjects. 2 - Significant increase in total finger ridge count of juvenile periodontitis subjects. 3 - Increased percent of Simian crease of juvenile periodontitis subjects. 4 - Palmer patterns and axial triradius of juvenile periodontitis subjects were within normal range. Therefore, analysis of the finger prints is a useful adjunct to the diagnosis of juvenile periodontitis and it may help to screen out patients who are liable to develop the disease
