Abstract
Cleidocranial dysplasia is an autosomal dominant heritable disorder caused by mutation in the gene encoding transcription factor Core Binding Factor Subunit Alpha 1 (CBFA1) or Runt related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2). It is characterized by aplasia or hypoplasia of the clavicles, characteristic craniofacial malformations, and the presence of numerous supernumerary and unerupted teeth. A 37 year old male with cleidocranial dysplasia is described in this article with cyst associated with impacted teeth as the first presentation.
