Abstract: Blepharo-Cheilo-Dontic (BCD) syndrome is a rare
condition characterised by abnormalities of the eyelid, lip and
teeth. A 12-year-old girl with BCD syndrome presented at the
Dental Hospital following referral from the multi-disciplinary
cleft lip and palate clinic. She had skeletal Class III relation,
with left posterior cross bite, occlusal contacts on the second
permanent molars with poor oral hygiene. The permanent
units missing were 15, 14, 13, 12, 11, 21, 22, 25, in the upper
arch and 35, 34, 32, 44 and 45 in the lower arch. This patient
presented a complex aesthetic problem, which through multidisciplinary
care resulted in a satisfactory aesthetic outcome.
In this case report we present the clinical management and
the role of the overdenture in her dental management. |
