Cleidocranial dysplasia (CCD, MIM#119600), for which the responsible gene is RUNX2, is a genetic disorder characterized by hypoplasia or aplasia of the clavicles, patent fontanelles, and a short stature. Supernumerary teeth and delayed eruption and impaction of permanent teeth are frequently associated with CCD. Our previous study reported wide intrafamilial variation in supernumerary tooth formation associated with a mutation in the RUNT-domain of RUNX2, suggesting a low correlation between the genotype and supernumerary tooth formation. To further clarify this point, a more precise evaluation was performed.
