Question 213 · LDEK · Developmental disorders of teeth
A 4-year-old child has five conically shaped milk teeth. In a clinical investigation undeveloped jaws, lips inversion, scarce hairiness and dryness of skin were found. Seven developing germs of permanent teeth were detected by radiography. These symptoms are characteristic of:
- A. cherubism.
- B. ectodermal dysplasia.
- C. cleidocranial dysplasia.
- D. Capdepont disease.
- E. odontodysplasia.
Hint
Combine the dental findings with the hair and skin abnormalities — all these structures derive from the same germ layer.
