ABSTRACT
Crouzon’s syndrome is a defect of congenital origin characterized by developmental malformations linked to the premature closure of cranial sutures, which produce dramatic changes in the shape of both the face and the skull.
The purpose of this article is to present a clinical case involving a 17-year-old female patient with Crouzon’s syndrome. We analyzed clinical and radiographic diagnoses, along with orthodontic-surgical management.
