| Abstract |
|
The parathyroid hormone plays a major role in the metabolism of calcium and phosphorus. In hypoparathyroidism the parathyroid glands are atrophied or absent associated with autoantibodies against parathyroid tissue. Pseudohypoparathyroidism is a metabolic disease caused by the disturbance in peripheral action of parathormone, but parathormone level is normal. In general, patients with pseudohypoparathyroidism have short stature, round face, brachydactylia, obesity, mental retardation, cataracts & ectopic calcifications on soft tissues. Dental manifestations are enamel hypoplasia, delayed eruption, blunting of root apex, hypodontia, pulp calcification, thickened lamina dura, excessive caries & malocclusion. In this case, intraoral examination showed enamel hypoplasia on the erupted permanent teeth & hypermobility on the remaining deciduous teeth. From the radiographic view severe dental anomalies were observed on canines and shortening and blunting of root apex was observed on mandibular incisors. Pathologic root resorption was also observed on deciduous teeth. |
