Abstract

Occulocerebrocutaneous syndrome is a rare condition characterized by orbital cysts and skin tags. The presence of supernumerary teeth has not previously been associated with this syndrome. A primary supernumerary tooth with a permanent supernumerary successor was found in this case. This highlights the importance of very careful examina-tion when assessing children with syndromes.
