  • Title: Dental implications of Tooth-Nail dysplasia (Witkop syndrome): a report of an affected family and an approach to dental management.
    Author: Wicomb GM, Stephen LX, Beighton P.
    Journal: J Clin Pediatr Dent; 2004; 28(2):107-12. PubMed ID: 14969367.
    Abstract:
    Tooth-Nail dysplasia is a rare genetic disorder, which is classified as an ectodermal dysplasia. Diagnostic differentiation from other conditions in this category is necessary for effective dental management and genetic counseling. The oro-dental and clinical manifestations of Tooth-Nail dysplasia in an affected male infant and his father are documented. Other family members have the condition and pedigree data are in keeping with autosomal dominant inheritance. A comprehensive approach to the dental management of an affected child is proposed.
