Management of cleidocranial dysplasia I—treatment of
an adolescent patient
CASE STORY Figure 4: Maxillary occlusal view.
A 17-year-old male patient presents with a chief
complaint of “I don’t like the way my teeth look,
and I would like to have a nice smile.” The
patient is accompanied by his mother (see Case
37) and has been diagnosed with cleidocranial
dysplasia (CCD). The patient has received only
palliative and emergency care for his dental
condition and no formal management plan has
been pursued for the treatment of CCD.
