    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Dentistry
    • Teratology
    • Medical Genetics

    Background:

    • Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) is a spectrum of developmental disorders caused by prenatal alcohol exposure.
    • Maxillofacial anomalies are common features of FAS, impacting facial structure and development.
    • Dentigerous cysts are odontogenic tumors that develop from the dental follicle of a developing tooth.

    Observation:

    • An 8-month-old infant diagnosed with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome presented with characteristic maxillofacial anomalies.
    • Radiographic and clinical examination revealed a large dentigerous cyst associated with a deciduous tooth.
    • This represents a novel association, as dentigerous cysts have not been previously reported in conjunction with FAS.

    Findings:

    • The presence of a large dentigerous cyst in an infant with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome is a significant finding.

    Related Experiment Videos

  • This case highlights the potential for rare dental pathologies to co-occur with known congenital conditions.
  • The cyst was associated with a deciduous tooth, adding to the rarity of the presentation.

    • Implications:

    • This case expands the known spectrum of complications associated with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome.
    • It underscores the importance of comprehensive dental evaluations in infants diagnosed with FAS.
    • Further research may explore potential pathogenetic links between FAS and the development of dentigerous cysts.
