ABSTRACT
Ectodermal dysplasia is a hereditary disease characterized by a congenital dysplasia of one or more ectodermal structures. Characteristic manifestations include scanty hair and eyebrows, pigmented and hyperkeratinized skin around the eyes and mouth, frontal bossing with prominent supraorbital ridges, nasal bridge depression and dental anomalies. Hyperthermia or unexplained high fever as a result of the deficiency of sweat glands is common medical history. Findings of intraoral structures are anodontia or oligodontia with conical crowns. Consequently, generalized spacing and loss of vertical dimension of occlusion. Interdisciplinary approach has been performed to treat a 10-year old boy with ectodermal dysplasia. Orthodontists and a prosthodontist worked together on this case, and the result was satisfactory.
