Prosthetic Treatment of Pediatric Patients with Ectodermal Dysplasia: Two Case Reports

Abstract

Ectodermal dysplasia (ED) is a hereditary disorder characterized by anomalies in the ectodermal structures. The most common dental anomalies are oligodontia and/or anodontia of the primary and permanent dentition. Therefore, pediatric patients with ED may be need prosthetic rehabilitations. Several prosthodontics treatment options, such as complete, removable partial, over-denture, fixed and implant-supported dentures are avaible to rehabilate patients with ED. The aim of this clinical case report is to present the clinical characteristics and prosthetic treatment of two cases with ED.

Ektodermal Displazili Çocuk Hastaların Protetik Tedavisi: İki Olgu Raporu

Abstract

Ektodermal displazi (ED), ektodermal yapılardaki anomalilerle karakterize kalıtsal bir hastalıktır. En yaygın görülen diş anomalileri, süt ve daimi dişlerin oligodontisi ve/veya anodontisidir. Bu nedenle ED'li çocuk hastalarda protetik rehabilitasyona ihtiyaç duyulabilir. ED'li hastaları rehabilite etmek için tam, hareketli parsiyel, over-denture, sabit ve implant destekli protezler gibi çeşitli protetik tedavi seçenekleri mevcuttur. Bu olgu raporunun amacı, ED'li iki olgunun klinik özelliklerini ve protetik tedavisini sunmaktır.
