Journal: Clinical Medicine Insights: Case Reports
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic bacterium that usually affects immunocompromised patients, causing infections whose signals and symptoms are related to the affected organ. The patient presented in this article was infected when he was 9 months old. Such condition led to certain alterations like dental improperly positioned teeth, retained deciduous teeth, hipodonty of permanent teeth, atrophy of the upper jaw and dental crowding. Therefore, the purpose of this article is to report the case of a patient affected by Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection in the early childhood and to describe the dental development disorders as consequence of this fact.

My experience publishing in Human Parasitic Diseases was very positive. I was very satisfied with the rapid and high-quality review process and the constructive feedback. The comments from the reviewers allowed me to improve the paper significantly. I highly recommend that other researchers publish their papers in Libertas Academia Journals.Dr. Pedro Magalhães (Faculty of Medicine, Agostinho Neto University, Luanda, Angola) What our authors say
