ABSTRACT

During childhood, it is frequent to find development disorders which are linked to the weak formation of anatomic structures during embryogenesis. It is possible to find a plethora of development disorders that affect the oral and maxillofacial region. The majority of these disorders has been classified as genetic malformations but not all can be described as such. That is because some development disorders appear as a result of a deficient embryogenesis of the face, producing thus anatomic and functional malformations but that stand apart from genetic and chromosomic specific components. The Pierre Robin sequence is one of them, given that this condition is produced by an initial disorder, followed by other disorders in the palate and jaw; provoking alimentary and breathing disabilities in the patient. Due to these disorders and their impact on the mouth, it is crucial that dentists be familiarized with such anomalies. The aim of this article is to describe the key characteristics that define this disease through the presentation of a clinical case and a literature review.
