Bannayan–Riley–Ruvalcaba (BRR) syndrome is a rare inherited condition. We describe the protean orofacial manifestations of this syndrome in one family and consider their management. The dental surgeon should be aware of this entity, its orofacial connotations and the possible association with Cowden’s syndrome.
