Summary

Cleidocranial dysplasia (CCD) is a rare genetic condition that affects the development of teeth and bones, including the skull, face, spine, collarbones, and legs. People with CCD may have bones that are formed differently or are more fragile than normal, and certain bones such as collarbones may be absent. The condition is covered under the categories of Teeth and Mouth, Genetic Disorders, and Bones and Joints, with a focus on craniofacial orthopedics.
