Abstract EN

Ectodermal dysplasia (ED) is a genetically heterogeneous condition resulting from clinical anomalies of structures derived from the ectoderm, such as the hair, nails, sweat glands, and teeth.

This clinical report presents the case of a child diagnosed with hypohidrotic ED at 2 years of age; clinical and imaging evaluation was performed with 6-year follow-up, and we present details of the prosthetic dental care, with a 12-month follow-up.

The patient’s masticatory capacity had improved, leading to the child gaining 4 kg.

In conclusion, prosthetic management was noninvasive and appeared to lead to developmental benefits for the patient.
