Kohlschütter-Tönz Syndrome is a rare disorder clinically characterized by amelogenesis imperfecta, epilepsy and
progressive mental deterioration. We present an additional case of this syndrome of a nine year-old boy who
was referred by pigmented teeth. The mental deterioration was associated with speech delay, impulsive behavior,
attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, and learning problems. The physical examination revealed a reduction of
lower third, slightly palpebral fissures, low ear and hair implantation, coarse hair and hypertrichosis. The intraoral
examination showed alteration in teeth pigmentation diagnosed as amelogenesis imperfecta. Although rare, the
present case report illustrates a syndrome that has dental anomalies and systemic alterations. It is important to re
-
cognize this syndrome as early as possible and paediatric dentist may contribute to the diagnosis and consequently
to better manage the patients.
