J Prosthet Dent. 2014 Sep;112(3):449-54. doi: 10.1016/j.prosdent.2014.01.028. Epub 2014 Jun 19.

Abstract

Ectodermal dysplasia (ED) is a hereditary disorder characterized by the abnormal development of specific tissues and structures of ectodermal origin. This clinical report describes the multidisciplinary approach to the diagnosis and treatment of a 24-year-old patient with partial expression of ED. The treatment plan used dental implants to support fixed prostheses and ceramic restorations to establish acceptable esthetics and provide function.
