EARLY PROSTHETIC MANAGEMENT OF CHILDREN WITH ECTODERMAL DYSPLASIA: A REPORT OF THREE CASES

Abstract

Ectodermal dysplasia (ED) is a group of congenital anomalies characterized by defects of two or more ectoderm-derived structures, such as hair, teeth and nails. The aim of this paper is to describe the characteristics and prosthodontic treatment of three cases with ED. Case 1: A 6-year-old boy was brought to our clinic with complaint of tooth ageneses. In clinical and radiographical examination, patient presented anodontia of permanent teeth. Medical history revealed that the child has cutaneous dyshidrosis and hypohidrosis. Based on the findings, the patient was diagnosed as Anhydrotic ED. To provide function, fonation and aesthetics, a complete denture for lower jaw and partial denture for upper jaw were made.  Case 2-3: Two brothers (aged 8, 9) were broght to our clinic with complaints of dental caries, dental pain and missing teeth. They had a medical history including hypohidrosis and problems with thermoregulation, and both of the patients presented with oligodontia. Based on the findings, brothers were diagnosed as Familial ED. Firstly, extractions and restorations were completed after which partial dentures were made to gain desired function. It is important to note that early prosthetic intervention gives oppurtunity to the child to develop physically, emotionally and socially like other healthy individuals.
