Abstract
Eagle’s syndrome is a condition that causes pain in the Craniofacial and cervical region of the neck.
Symptoms related to the Eagle’s syndrome may be confused with the variety of neuralgias, oral,
dental and temporomandibular joint (TMJ) conditions. In this paper, a case of the very young female
suffering with the difficulty in swallowing and recurrent dull pain in the throat with restriction of
the movement of head to the left side was presented. A thorough past medical and dental history,
extra oral and intra oral examination coupled with the panoramic radiographic interpretation were
used to diagnose Eagle’s syndrome.
