Noonan syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder that is typically dysmorphic anamolies at birth. In many affected individuals, this syndrome is associated with cardiac defects and a distinctive facial appearance. We aimed to discuss a different variant of Noonan Syndrome progressing especially with gingival overgrowth and dental anomaly in our cases. A 15-year-old female patient presented to our family medicine outpatient clinic with the complaint of growth retardation. The patient was diagnosed with Noonan Syndrome with phenotypic symptoms. Noonan Syndrome is one of the syndromes without any chromosomal anomalies developing with Turner-like phenotypic features. Gingival overgrowth and dental anomaly coexistence in addition to the oral symptoms that are likely to be related to the Noonan Syndrome was present in our case.Specifically, if there are accompanying symptoms and findings in cases with gingival overgrowth and dental anomalies as seen in patients’ mouth and teeth examinations, Noonan Syndrome may be taken into consideration.
