Cleidocranial dysplasia syndrome (CCD) is a rare autosomal dominant disease with wide range of variability. Dentists are often the first to encounter the CCD patients, some of whom do not show typical manifestations. Thus, dentists should be fully familiar with clinical manifestations and gene mutation. A 16-year-old girl was admitted for orthodontic treatment because of space in the dental arch and teeth irregularity. The introcession on the forehead and occiput suggests that she was a CCD patient. Clinical, radiological and genetic examinations were carried out in this girl and her family members and results showed delayed closure of the fontanel, hypoplastic clavicles and tooth anomalies of the girl and her mother. Genetic analysis revealed a 884C deletion in the exon 5 of the CBFA1/RUNX2 gene, which has never been reported in China. In this reported, the manifestations, diagnostic process and treatment of CCD were introduced according to the experience on the diagnosis of CCD in this family.

BACKGROUND Cleidocranial dysplasia (CCD) is a rare (1: 1 000 000) autosomal dominant congenital skeletal dysplasia characterized by widely patent calvarial sutures, clavicular hypoplasia, supernumerary teeth, and short stature. Only a minority of the cases are diagnosed early after birth. We present another case of proven CCD presenting with typical neonatal phenotype to promote awareness of this rare disorder.

Introduction: Accuracy and user experience of dental diagnosis for a patient with cleidocranial dysplasia (CCD) using immersive virtual reality (VR) and cone-beam computed tomography multiplanar reconstruction methods were evaluated.

Methods: Dental students (n = 40) were randomly assigned to VR or MP groups. VR participants manipulated and visualized the rendered 3-dimensional model using VR hardware and software.

Introduction: Cleidocranial dysplasia (CCD) is a genetic disorder characterized by distinctive oral manifestations, making dental anomalies a key diagnostic criterion and treatment focus.

Methods: We retrospectively enrolled 32 patients diagnosed with CCD with detailed dental records (19 males and 13 females; mean age, 20.5 years).

The impact of RUNX2 gene variants on cleidocranial dysplasia phenotype: a systematic review.

Cleidocranial Dysplasia (CCD) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by skeletal abnormalities and dental anomalies, primarily caused by variants in the RUNX2 gene. Understanding the spectrum of RUNX2 variants and their effects on CCD phenotypes is crucial for accurate diagnosis and management strategies. This systematic review aimed to comprehensively analyze the genotypic and phenotypic spectra of RUNX2 variants in CCD patients, assess their distribution across functional regions, and investigate genotype-phenotype correlations.

A novel splice site mutation in Chinese associated with cleidocranial dysplasia.

Pathogenic genes in most patients with cleidocranial dysplasia have been confirmed to be runt-related transcription factor 2 (), which controls mutations in specific osteoblast transcription factors and affects skull ossification and suture adhesion. This study aimed to explore the role of mutations. Here, we report a rare case of a splice site mutation in a Chinese population with typical cleidocranial dysplasia symptoms, cranial suture insufficiency, clavicle dysplasia, and dental anomalies.
