Journal Title: Journal of Dental Specialities - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 1

Abstract

Eagle’s syndrome, also known as elongated styloid process, is a condition that may be the source of craniofacial and cervical pain. It is infrequently reported but is probably more common than generally considered. Diagnosis is confirmed through clinical symptoms, radiological findings, and physical examinations. In this paper a case of ES exhibiting unilateral symptoms with bilateral elongation of styloid process is reported and the literature is reviewed.
