Ectodermal dysplasia (ED) is a rare, inherited disorder, the manifestation of which could be seen in more than one ectodermal derivative. The most common syndrome within this group are hypohydrotic (anhydrotic) and hidrotic ED. The tissues which are primarily affected are skin, hair, nails eccrine glands and teeth. Oral manifestations of ectodermal dysplasia are anodontia or oligodontia, complete or partial absence of teeth with frequent malformation of any teeth present, both deciduous and permanent dentitions. Teeth are commonly truncated or cone shaped. Several ectodermal dysplasia syndromes may manifest in association with midfacial defects, mainly cleft lip and palate. No treatment for the condition is available. However, affected individuals with dental defects could be subjected to early dental evaluations and intervention beginning with denture as early as two years. This paper presents a case report of a 09 year old patient diagnosed with ectodermal dysplasia and with clinical and radiographic evaluation it was found that the patient had only four maxillary teeth. A maxillary removable partial denture and a complete mandibular denture were fabricated for prosthetic rehabilitation after considering her growth and condition of her present teeth. No major complications occurred during the 3 month follow up and the patient was fully satisied. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
