title: [Observations on prosthetic restoration in children].
abstract: In young children there are two frequent factors, that cause edentation: the syndrome of the sugar "baby's bottle" or the "honey dummy" and tooth-loss by trauma. Multiple extractions can be programmed in children for reason of general condition, in the major concern to remove present or potential infectious foci. Still less frequently, sometimes lately diagnosed anomalies in number or structure oblige to replacement of missing or deficient tooth. The complexity of these restorations can be related to technical problems, less frequent, in contradiction to the current opinion, to psychological problems. They have to be integrated in structures in growth, the key character of each treatment in children or adolescents. Consequently it is necessary to take account of all this factors, before to attempt this charge, and to foresee adaptations, regular control, succession of the case and interception.
