Abstract |
This paper is a case report of a 10-year-old girl with focal dermal hypoplasia (FDH) who presented for dental care. She displayed many of the well-documented oral features associated with this syndrome. Additionally, she had taurodontism of a permanent mandibular molar. Although taurodontism affected only one tooth in this patient, the presentation of taurodontism with FDH has not been reported previously.
