| Popis: | This article aims to look at the treatment and management of patients presenting with delayed tooth eruption of the permanent dentition. We describe the case of a 17-year-old girl who presented having been diagnosed with Hyper-IgE syndrome. The patient was positive for the STAT-3 gene and presented with a history of some classic Hyper-IgE features. There was a history of multiple skin abscesses and she was on long-term antibiotics. She presented in the mixed dentition with multiple retained deciduous teeth and a full complement of unerupted and fully formed permanent teeth. This article will describe features of this syndrome and discuss management strategies for patients presenting with delayed eruption. Clinical Relevance: This case study highlights the difficulties in managing patients who present with retained primary dentition at an older age. It also presents a rare case presentation of a patient with Hyper-IgE. |
