Abstract: Premature loss of primary dentition can result from both local and systemic causes. Early childhood caries, dental trauma, periodontitis, natal or neonatal tooth extraction, and manifestation of systemic diseases are possible causes for premature loss of deciduous teeth. Patients with early loss of primary teeth have increased risk for malocclusion, phonation problems, psychosocial problems, and decreased quality of life. This case report will discuss the assessment and the possible diagnosis of hypophosphatasia of a 4-year-old female patient with early exfoliation of #F and advanced alveolar bone loss in the maxillary anterior region.
