Enamel hypoplasia, cleft palate, persistence of primary teeth, missing or impacted teeth are the significant intraoral findings. In this case presentation, a boy 9 years of age demonstrated macrocephalia, dysmorphic face, persistence of coronal and sagittal fontanellas, bulging of forehead, hypoplastic maxilla and highly arched palate.
