Soft and Hard Tissue Changes in the Oral and Maxillofacial Region in Patients with Neurofibromatosis: Rare Case Report

Abstract Introduction Neurofibromatosis is a group of autosomal dominant genetic disorders characterized by multiple cutaneous lesions and tumors of the nervous system. NF is categorized into two, NF type-1 and NF type-2. Neurofibromatosis-1 is a neurocutaneous-skeletal disorder with variable phenotypic description. Craniofacial skeletal symptoms of the disease are observed in the jaw deformations and impacted, missing and displaced teeth can also be seen. The purpose of this report is to present a case of NF1. Case report A 23-year-old male patient was referred to the Department of Maxillofacial Surgery, Faculty of Dentistry, Adiyaman University due to abscess of molar teeth. As a result of the panoramic radiography taken from the patient, the second and third molar teeth were impacted in the left mandibula. Conclusion In neurofibromatosis, bone and soft tissue involvement can be seen in the maxillofacial region. They are also lesions that can cause the impacted teeth.
