The authors describe the case of a 10-year-old girl presenting with Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome (ARS), a rare autosomal dominant condition. The patient showed severe hypodontia, microdontia and short roots. Early diagnosis of the syndrome from its dento-facial and systemic features is important so that subsequent ocular complications may be prevented.
