[Early implant treatment of a child with anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia. Apropos of a case].
The purpose of this article is to report the clinical course and follow-up of a child with ectodermal dysplasia who was treated with implants surgery very early. Different possibilities for prosthetic restoration in the anodontic child are reviewed. Tolerance was excellent. Good cover of the implant was achieved at four years. We propose early implantation reconstruction surgery for these exceptional cases. A prospective multicentric study of this condition would be useful.
