Cleidocranial dysplasia – A case report

Cleidocranial dysplasia is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by bony dysplasia in clavicles, patent sutures and fontanelles, short stature and multiple unerupted teeth. Despite its variable expressivity, early diagnosis through the classical findings can be achieved by clinicians. The diagnosis of this disease requires a reliable skeletal evaluation in addition to the oral findings. Radiographs of the skull and chest are important to diagnosis of Cleidocranial dysplasia. A case report of 11yrs boy who manifested with classical features of this disorder is presented here. Keywords: Cleidocranial dysplasia, Delayed eruption, Retained teeth, Impacted teeth
