Abstract

Regional odontodysplasia is a rare developmental anomaly involving both mesodermal and ecto-dermal dental components in groups of contigous teeth. RO affects the primary and permanent denti-tion in the maxilla and mandible or both jaws. Generally, it is localized in only one arch. The maxil-lary arch is affected more often than the mandibular arch. The affected teeth tend to be in a consecu-tive series that does not cross the midline, although some cases do not follow this pattern, as in the present case, have been documented. Radiogaphically wide pulp chambers and thin poorly defined hard tissue outlines described as a “ghost teeth” appearance, are typical features. A case of regional odontodysplasia in a 5 year old male patient is presented. The clinical and radiogaphical findings of this developmental anomaly and treatment are described.
