Title: Vitamin-D-resistant rickets: report of a case. Author: Foster Page LA. Journal: N Z Dent J; 2008 Sep; 104(3):111-4. PubMed ID: 18980053. Abstract: A case is presented of a child from rural New Zealand with vitamin-D-resistant rickets. He underwent extensive treatment and is now partially dentate. The child may have received substantially different care if appropriate dental specialists had practised locally, although, in the long term, his outcome may not have been different. Early medical diagnosis of rickets and prompt preventive dental care may be useful in reducing spontaneous pulp death in either the primary or permanent dentitions.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
