Abstract

Dental manifestations of the Aarskog syndrome were studied in 10 individuals. There was retarded development and eruption of the permanent teeth in six boys. Dental age was less retarded than height age and bone age. The prevalence of hypodontia and the prevalence and degree of orthodontic anomalies were higher than in the general population. Caries prevalence was high.
