Abstract
This case report discusses the pathophysiology, clinical manifestations, and dental implications of very long-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (VLCADD). If undiagnosed, VLCADD can be life-threatening. Dental professionals must ensure patient safety through adequate knowledge, proper nutrition and glucose management, as well as genetic counseling in cases of consanguineous marriages.
