Abstract

Ectodermal dysplasia is a rare hereditary abnormality of which the outstanding characteristics are hypodontia, hypohidrosis and hypotricosis. Patient afflicted with this malformation shows a typical face resembling that of congenital-syphilis. Dental abnormality (delayed eruption, oligodontia) becomes apparent in this child and causes the parents to bring him to the dentist. Prosthetic appliances are usually indicated and he must be adjusted or be remade as the child matures.
