.
Study
Design

A
total
of
16
Kabuki
syndrome
individuals
,
aged
between

underwent
complete
physical
examination
,
as
well
as
intraoral
and
radiographic
examinations
.
Results
:
Craniofacial
and
dental
alterations
were
observed
in
all
Kabuki
syndrome
patients
examined
.
In
addition
,
atypical
shape
of
the
molars
'
crowns
,
occlusal
convergence
of
the

)
.
Conclusion
:
A
great
clinical
heterogeneity
was
observed
in
Kabuki
syndrome
individuals
in
line
with
previous
studies
in
the
literature
.
Further
clinical
and
molecular
studies
are
necessary
