title: Clinical and radiographic features of the lacrimo-auriculo-dento-digital syndrome.
abstract: Lacrimo-auriculo-dento-digital syndrome is an autosomal dominant malformation complex that affects craniofacial structures including the teeth and salivary glands. There have been several cases of this syndrome reported to date. A family with three affected members is presented. In addition to several of the clinical manifestations of lacrimo-auriculo-dento-digital syndrome, these subjects also show previously unreported radiographic features of the syndrome as demonstrated by panoramic radiographic examination and corrected axis linear tomography of the temporomandibular joints.
