Permanent teeth eruption after timely extraction in a STAT3-HIES patient. At 8 years of age, patient #4 had 18 retained primary teeth, whose roots show very little root resorption in a panoramic radiograph (a).

Agenesis of maxillary second premolars is shown. The canines were extracted at 13 years of age and erupted shortly afterwards (not shown)
