[A case with palatine torus of rare shape and size].
Palatine torus is a bone formation on the palate at the site of the palatine suture, a result of connection of the palatine mandibular processes grown together. The shape and size of the palatine torus vary. Large size of the palatine torus makes difficult the designing of removable dentures for orthodontic treatment.
