Abstract

Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (SJS) and Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TEN) are diseases that are within the spectrum of severe cutaneous adverse reactions. These diseases compromise the oral cavity in 25% to 50% of the cases. We present a case of a 10-year-old patient who suffered an acute attack of SJS at the age of 6 years. In the oral cavity, he presented sequelae in the oral mucosa, delayed root developed in all teeth, with no other cause attributable in its medical history, different to the SJS. The age at which the disease occurred and the stage of dental development point to that the acute SJS as a probable cause, which allows us to conclude that damage occurred in the Hertwig epithelial sheath during its course, causing apoptosis and, consequently, a cessation in root development.
