  • Title: Interim prosthetic phase of multidisciplinary management of cleidocranial dysplasia: "the Bronx Approach".
    Author: Berg RW, Kurtz KS, Watanabe I, Lambrakos A.
    Journal: J Prosthodont; 2011 Oct; 20 Suppl 2():S20-5. PubMed ID: 22003878.
    Abstract:
    This case report presents treatment of two patients with the usual characteristics of Cleidocranial Dysostosis. A multidisciplinary approach using the disciplines of prosthodontics, orthodontics, and oral surgery was effected. Exfoliation of the patient's deciduous teeth and failure of permanent anterior tooth eruption led to emotional, social, and self-esteem issues in both patients. Due to the psychosocial issues confronting these two patients, esthetics was addressed prior to active intervention with orthodontics and after some surgical intervention. The use of two interim overdenture prostheses with magnetic retention is described.
