This article describes a new case of a rare syndrome including enamel agenesis of the primary
and permanent dentition, delayed or absent eruption of the permanent dentition, coronal intraalveolar resorption and gingival enlargement. Renal symptoms include medullary nephrocalcinosis without any apparent cause, and evolution to a renal failure. The early diagnosis provided by the oral symptoms leads to a better renal prognosis. As a consequence, pediatric dentists should be aware of this pathology.
