Junctional epidermolysis bullosa associated with hypoplastic enamel and pervasive failure of tooth eruption: Oral rehabilitation with use of an overdenture.
[junctional epidermolysis bullosa]
This
report
describes
a
previously
unreported
case
of
generalized
hypoplastic
enamel
and
failure
of
eruption
of
the
permanent
maxillary
teeth
and
only
partial
eruption
of
the
permanent
mandibular
teeth
in
an
18
-
year
-old
male
diagnosed
with
junctional
epidermolysis
bullosa
.
Similar
anomalies
were
reported
to
have
affected
the
deciduous
dentition
.
Beginning
at
4
years
of
age
,
oral
rehabilitation
has
been
conservatively
managed
with
the
fabrication
of
various
maxillary
complete
overdentures
.
The
use
of
this
prosthesis
has
provided
an
economical
,
nonsurgical
treatment
option
when
oral
soft
tissue
permits
and
with
relative
ease
of
construction
.
