Prosthetic rehabilitation of a child with induced anodontia.
A case of prosthetic rehabilitation of a five and half year old child with induced anodontia is presented. Complete dentures were provided and patient was followed for a period of 20 months. As the permanent teeth erupt into the oral cavity, regular modifications have to be made on the denture base to facilitate their eruption.
