Abstract
Ectodermal dysplasia consists of clinically and genetically heterogeneous groups of disorders characterized by
absence of or incomplete or delayed development of one or more of the appendages derived from epidermal
tissue (hair, sweat gland, teeth, skin, and nails) or of oral ectodermal origin during embryogenesis. A case of a
seven year-old child with full blown condition of ectodermal dysplasia is presented. Common dental, oral, and
physical conditions were taken into consideration. Clinical management consisted of an overdenture to improve
psychological development and to promote better functioning of the stomatognathic system.
