A Palliative Prosthetic Rehabilitation for Improving Quality of Life in Ectodermal Dysplasia Patient: A Case Report
Abstract: Ectodermal dysplasia is a rare inherited disease that affects several ectodermally derived anatomical structures characterized by hypodontia, hypotrichosis and anhidrosis. Early dental intervention can enhance patient?s appearance, thereby minimizing the associated emotional and psychological issues in these patients. This clinical report demonstrates prosthetic rehabilitation consisting of lower overdenture to help in psychosocial development and to restore the vertical dimension, esthetics and functioning of the stomatognathic system.
