Abstract
Cleidocranial dysplasia (CCD) is an autosomal dominant developmental anomaly with craniofacial, skeletal and dental malformations. The gene causing CCD has been mapped to chromosome 6p21 within a region containing CBFA1, a member of the runt family of transcription factors. It is characterised by failure of membranous ossification resulting in absence or pseudoarthrosis of clavicle, open fontenelles, impacted and supernumerary teeth.
