459 - Blepharo-cheilo-odontic Syndrome - A Case Report

Blepharo-cheilo-odontic syndrome (BCD syndrome) is an autosomal dominant genetic condition caused by mutations in the CDH1 or CTNND1 gene. Fewer than 1,000 people in the U.S. have BCD syndrome and symptoms may start to appear as a newborn. BCD syndrome mainly affects the eyelids, upper lip, and teeth. Oral findings include bilateral cleft lip and palate, oligodontia, microdontia, and conical teeth. The dental abnormalities affect both primary and secondary dentition. This report highlights the assessment, diagnosis, and treatment planning considerations for a 14 year 4 month female patient with type II BCD syndrome.
