Implants in children with hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia: an alternative approach to esthetic management: case report and review of the literature.
[]
Ectodermal
dysplasia
(
ED
)
is
a
rare
congenital
disease
that
affects
several
ectodermal
structures
.
Children
with
ED
may
have
various
manifestations
of
the
disease
that
differ
in
severity
.
In
addition
to
its
other
symptoms
,
ED
causes
anadontia
and
hypodontia
of
the
primary
or
permanent
teeth
,
impacted
teeth
,
malformed
and
widely
spaced
peg-shaped
teeth
,
and
underdeveloped
alveolar
ridges
.
Since
the
oral
rehabilitation
of
these
cases
is
often
difficult
,
particularly
in
pediatric
patients
,
treatment
should
be
provided
by
a
multidisciplinary
team
.
Dental
implants
are
the
treatment
of
choice
when
growth
has
stabilized
,
and
implants
can
be
used
to
support
,
retain
,
and
stabilize
the
prosthesis
.
The
purpose
of
this
paper
was
to
present
a
case
report
of
implant
placement
in
a
7
-
year
-old
girl
with
hypohidrotic
ectodermal
dysplasia
and
review
the
current
literature
to
discuss
the
use
of
dental
implants
in
such
patients
.
