Abstract
Summary The dental abnormalities which were noted in a thirteen-year-old Italian girl who had achondroplasia were as follows: (1) disturbed genesis of the teeth as represented by the complete absence of the maxillary second incisor, all the mandibular incisors and both maxillary and mandibular third molars; (2) disturbed development as evidenced by the partially formed mandibular canines, premolars, and both the maxillary and the mandibular second molars; (3) disturbed eruption since the mandibular canines, premolars and all second molars are unerupted; and (4) a peculiar abnormality of shape represented by the bizarre conical maxillary incisors.
