Freeman-sheldon syndrome presenting with microstomia: a case report and literature review.

Freeman-Sheldon syndrome (FSS), as first described by Freeman and Sheldon in 1938, is a morphologically well-defined syndrome that results in a dysmorphic status combining bone anomalies and joint contractures with characteristic facies. It is part of the nosologic group of pathologies currently known as distal arthrogryposis as reported by Hall et al. (Am J Med Genet 11:185-239, 1982 [1]).

CBCT in orthodontics: the wave of future.

Unlabelled: Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) has probably been one of the most revolutionary innovations in the field of dentistry in the past decade and it provides a novel platform for orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning. Current imaging techniques are essentially two-dimensional (2D) representations of threedimensional (3D) objects and suffer from several limitations. Hence, fulfillment of ideal imaging goals has been limited.

Oral manifestations of epidermolysis bullosa dystrophica: a rare genetic disease.

Epidermolysis bullosa (EB) constitutes a group of phenotypically diverse genodermatoses, which manifests with blistering and erosions of the skin and mucous membranes as the unifying diagnostic feature. It is an acquired disease or inherited as either autosomal-dominant or recessive with an incidence of 1/50 000. The prominent clinical characteristic of the disease is the development of bullae or vesicles in mucosa or skin in response to minor trauma.
