Use of Lateral Cephalometric Analysis in Diagnosing Craniofacial Features in Papillon-Lefevre Syndrome
Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SCIENTIFIC STUDY - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 7
Abstract
Knowledge of facial structure is important as an oral physician as our goal is to achieve ideal facial profile with esthetic harmony. Therefore, the understanding of the hard and soft tissue structures is necessary in planning proper management of the patients. This clinical case report of Papillon-Lefevre syndrome is an attempt to illustrate the advantage of specific cephalometric findings for assessing the hard and soft tissue variables in this group of patients that could be significant for diagnosis and proper treatment planning in establishing the esthetic and functional oral rehabilitation of patients affected with this syndrome.
