From childhood to adulthood: oral rehabilitation of a patient with ectodermal dysplasia.
Ectodermal dysplasia, in all its varieties, occurs in approximately 1 in every 100,000 live births. Depending on the variety, hypohidrosis, hypotrichosis, hypodontia, oligodontia, and/or anodontia may be exhibited. Few long-term clinical reports exist. This report follows the development, growth, and initial treatment of a 10-year-old patient with ectodermal dysplasia and his subsequent oral rehabilitation 20 years later.
