Resumo

Osteopetrosis is a rare hereditary condition characterized by increased bone density. The jaws, bones, and teeth invariably are affected and the osteopetrosis is directly proportional with the severity of the disease. This article describes a clinical case of osteopetrosis and reviews the clinicopathologic, radiographic, and treatment features.
