Abstract
Background
Escobar Syndrome is an extremely rare disease. In this syndrome, specific craniofacial findings can be found. These findings may lead to dental pathologies. In the literature, information about the dental treatment processes of these patients is very limited.
Case Presentation
We present a case of an 8-year-old boy diagnosed with Escobar Syndrome was referred to us because of toothache and multiple caries. The patient's restorative treatment processes and dental preservation methods were planned. This planning and treatment was planned in accordance with the unique characteristics of the patient's disease.
Conclusion
As a result, we believe that it is important for our colleagues to plan the treatment processes of rare diseases specific to the individual and to share this process.
