Continuous supernumerary teeth development in cleidocranial dysplasia post-surgical extraction – A novel case report

Abstract

The diagnosis of Cleidocranial dysplasia is approached via clinical features, genetic testing, and imaging. CCD includes delayed or non-closure of cranial sutures the presence of bulging anterior fontanelle and multiple supernumerary teeth. We report two twin sisters presenting all CCD characteristics but surprisingly post-extraction of supernumerary teeth they both developed newly formed dental buds.
