Abstract
A male patient aged 6.5 years (patient No.1) is reported with chief complaint of white lesions in his mouth from birth, which was finally diagnosed as chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis (CMC). Clinical, radiographical and histopathological examinations revealed dentinogenesis imperfecta associated with osteogenesis imperfecta in both the patient and his sister (patient No.2). The importance of early diagnosis and treatment of both diseases is discussed in this report.
