treatment approach
Kenneth K H Cheung
Morgan Street Dental Centre, Australia
M
arfan Syndrome (MFS) is an autosomal dominant genetic disorder of the connective tissue that can affect multiple organs.
The prevalence is estimated to be one to two affected individuals per 10,000 live births. Various oral manifestations
have been associated with the syndrome. The replacement of missing teeth associated with MFS with dental implants is both
challenging and demanding. This case report describes a multidisciplinary treatment plan on a MFS patient with skeletal Cl 2
and hypodontia involves oral maxillofacial surgery, orthodontics, implantology and restorative specialties. A well-coordinated
treatment planning involving multidisciplinary approach requires close working relationship among team members. A clear
understanding of patient’s concerns, a detailed map of treatment in mind and thorough communication among teammembers
aremandatory for the best result.The treatment has a positive impact on self-esteem,masticatory function, speech and facial aesthetic.
