Abstract
Background: Cleidocranial dysplasia (CCD) is a rare autosomal dominant disorder with a prevalence of 1:1,000,000. These patients often present with dentofacial deformities such as midface hypoplasia, multiple supernumeraries and delayed eruption and non-eruption of permanent teeth. Case Presentation: We report a staged orthodontic, orthognathic surgery and open septorhinoplasty management of a 13-year-old male Chinese Singaporean patient diagnosed with cleidocranial dysplasia. He presented with multiple retained primary teeth, buried supernumerary teeth and unerupted permanent teeth. He had a Class III malocclusion and concave facial profile. The multidisciplinary management, which took place over 12 years, resulted in much improved occlusion and facial aesthetics. Conclusion: Collaboration of different specialties and careful planning is required for the successful treatment of cleidocranial dysplasia
