Application of 3-D Imaging in a Familial Case of Cleidocranial Dysplasia
Cleidocranial dysplasia (CCD) is a
rare inherited disorder affecting dental and skeletal tissues. CCD usually has
an autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance and common clinical features seen
are aplastic or hypoplastic clavicles, late closure of fontanelle, open skull
sutures, retained deciduous teeth, late eruption of permanent teeth and

confirmed clinically and radiographically. The newer radiographic advancement,
CBCT was used to validate the radiographic findings
