Ectodermal Dysplasia: Dental Management and Complete Denture Therapy
نویسندگان
چکیده
Ectodermal dysplasia is a genetic disorder in which there are congenital birth abnormalities of 2 or more ectodermal structures. The management of ectodermal dysplasia is complicated due to the craniofacial dysmorphology, wide array of dento-facial defects and because the individuals are quite young when they are evaluated for treatment. This article reviews the various dental treatment options for ectodermal dysplasia patients and presents a detailed report describing the prosthodontic management with complete denture therapy, suitably modified for the young patient.
