    Abstract

    A full dental examination on 64 children aged from 3 to 20 years who were in long term remission from malignant disease showed normal facial growth, caries incidence, and periodontal indices. There was increased incidence of hypodontia and hypoplasia which in some could be ascribed to the original disease or its treatment.
