title: Early treatment considerations for oligodontia in ectodermal dysplasia: a case report.
abstract: Two brothers diagnosed with ectodermal dysplasia were treated for 5 years during their mixed-dentition periods for problems arising from absence of teeth (oligodontia) and abnormally formed teeth. An individualized approach to restorative and prosthodontic management allowed dynamic and evolving treatment attuned to their concern about their appearance.
