ABSTRACT
Hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (HED) is a hereditary syndrome, characterized by a classictriad of hypotrichosis, hypodontia and hypohidrosis. The case of an 8-year-old girl with HEDpresenting oligodontia and marked resorption of maxillary and mandibular alveolar ridges is reported. A specially designed aluminum wire tray was used for taking impressions of both dental arches. Prosthetic rehabilitation included a removable maxillary over denture and a mandibular conventional acrylic resin denture made tissue-compatible by means of a soft denture liner attached to denture base. The proposed treatment plan provided improved esthetics, function,and quality of life.
