Abstract:
Hyperparathyroidism is a condition due to an elevated secretion of parathormone. Oral manifestations are caused by the disturbance of the calcium-phosphate equilibrium which results in pathologic changes of the bones. A patient with secondary hyperparathyroidism and severe maxillary and mandibular deformations is described.
