Abstract

Children with congenital nephrotic syndrome (CNS) can present with oro-dental complications secondary to the disease or from the treatment of the condition. This case report describes the multidisciplinary management of a 12-year-old male patient with CNS. It highlights the importance for pediatricians and nephrologists to be aware of the dentists’ role in the general health and well-being of children with chronic renal disease.
