Turner Syndrome is a disorder of the X chromosome affecting girls with a prevalence of approximately 1/2500 to 1 in 3000 live female births. About 50 % of girls with Turner syndrome have monosomy X (45XO, pure form of TS). About 30% of girls with this disorder have Turner mosaic with mixed chromosome pattern (46XX/45X). The chief manifestations of the syndrome are short stature, peripheral edema, webbing of the neck, extra skin fold renal and cardiovascular anomalies, sexual infantilism, learning disability etc. Turner syndrome is a major concern for the dentist due to its various oral manifestations which include Class II facial profile, hypoplastic mandible, high arched and narrow palate, thinner enamel, decreased amount of dentin, reduced tooth size, tooth mobility and periodontal pocket, and malocclusion. We are presenting a case of a 13 yr old female with Mosaic Turner Syndrome, reported to our department with oral complaints.
