Abstract
A 15-day female neonate term small for gestational age with Pierre Robin Sequence was presented with respiratory distress, requiring respiratory care. The mandibular distraction surgery was performed for micrognathia and progressive respiratory distress. Gradually, she improved and was discharged home on gastrostomy tube feeding. This case underscores the importance of dentistry in the neonatal management of complicated Pierre Robin Sequence successfully.
