Abstrakt: Kabuki syndrome (KS) is a rare congenital syndrome characterized by facial dysmorphia, mild to moderate mental impairment, and skeletal and dental abnormalities, and it may present associated syndromes. An 8-year-old male patient diagnosed with KS and with the association of Pierre Robin sequence was examined, and there was a delay in the eruption of permanent teeth and the presence of eruption cysts in the region of the upper central incisors. In the general physical examination, the child presented difficulties in speech, walking, and generalized spasm. A cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scan revealed the presence of all germs of the permanent teeth but with delay and alteration in the eruption trajectory. The child is being followed up at the stomatology clinic. In view of the occurrence of dental and developmental anomalies in individuals with KS, dental findings can be useful and an additional way to support the diagnosis of KS in children.
