Allgrove’s syndrome and oral health care

Allgrove’s syndrome is an uncommon inherited condition. It consists of a triad of congenital defects each of which has a dental relevance in its own right but together can produce major oral health problems for the patient and treating clinician alike. Knowledge of the main aspects of Allgrove’s syndrome will assist the dental team in the provision of oral health care to patients with this condition.

Key words: Allgrove’s syndrome, achalasia, hypoadremnalism, alacrima, xerostomia
