**6. Conclusion**

Anomalies of head and neck may arise sporadically or with a strong hereditary predilection. Isolated single anomalies may at times go undiagnosed unless they cause considerable aesthetic and functional concerns. Syndromes usually present more pronounced anomalies; however, treatment to such conditions remain questionable. Systemic involvement may further complicate the management in such cases.

Anomalies that affect dento-facial region are numerous. A thorough knowledge of these anomalies is of great importance to a clinician. Also, a vast amount of cultural, social and personal beliefs regarding the aetiology of such facial deformities and the affected person poses great challenge in providing treatment to such cases.
