Full mouth rehabilitation of an ectodermal dysplasia patient with implant-supported prostheses: a clinical report.

Year: 2013

Type: article

Abstract: Full mouth rehabilitation in patients with ectodermal dysplasia (ED) is difficult to manage, especially because the afflicted individuals are quite young when they are evaluated for treatment; therefore, esthetics is an important concern. This clinical report describes the rehabilitation of a 19-year-old girl diagnosed with ectodermal dysplasia. Eleven implants were placed in the maxilla and mandible along with bone grafting to the upper jaw and both arches were constructed by metal-ceramic implant-supported fixed prostheses. This treatment plan seems to be favorable for ED patients.
