Abstract
A 26-year-old White male patient with cri-du-chat syndrome was referred to the hospital dental service with the main complaint of damaged teeth. During clinical evaluation the patient displayed uncooperative behavior, requiring dental treatment under general anesthesia. On clinical examination, an increased overjet, dental crowding, ogival palate, dental caries, absence of passive lip sealing, and poor oral hygiene were observed. On panoramic radiography, it was possible to observe the presence of the included teeth 13, 18, 38, and 48. In addition, there was a remaining root of tooth 25. Dental treatment planning consisted of extraction of teeth 13, 18, 25, 37, 38, 46, 47, and 48; composite resin restoration of tooth 21; periodontal scraping; prophylaxis; and topical fluoride application. On postoperative return, the teeth sockets were well healed, and the patient was followed up in the dental office.
