  • Title: Cleidocranial Dysplasia: Presentation of Clinical and Radiological Features of a Rare Syndromic Entity.
    Author: Modgil R, Arora KS, Sharma A, Mohapatra S, Pareek S.
    Journal: Mymensingh Med J; 2018 Apr; 27(2):424-428. PubMed ID: 29769514.
    Abstract:
    Cleidocranial dysplasia is a developmental anomaly of the skeleton and the teeth. This condition may be inherited and be transmitted as dominant characteristics in either gender, or may appear spontaneously. It presents with skeletal defects of several bones, such as partial or complete absence of clavicles, late closure of the fontanels, presence of open skull sutures and multiple wormian bones. The dental manifestations are mainly delayed exfoliation of primary teeth and delayed eruption of permanent teeth with multiple impacted supernumerary teeth. This case of a 20 year old girl is noteworthy to the dentist as it deals with clinical and radiological features (a high number of impacted and supernumerary teeth as well as brachycephaly, frontal bossing and hypermobility of shoulders) which may come handy in clinical practice.
