title: Carotid type of Eagle's syndrome.
abstract: Eyes don't see what mind does not know. It is important for a clinician to refresh his knowledge frequently to recognize some of the conditions that one may come across rarely no matter how insignificant the condition may seem. Especially in a dental outpatient department setting, individuals may complain of varied symptoms which the clinician, often tends to correlate to one of the oral diseases. We present a case of Eagle's syndrome with vague clinical presentation which could have easily gone undiagnosed if not for the application of simple diagnostic procedures and aids like Orthopantamogram (OPG).
