dc.description.abstract | Ectodermal dysplasia’s are inherited diseases that have developmental defects in at least two major structures derived from the ectoderm. The most characteristic findings are sparse scalp and body hair, reduced number of sweat glands, heat intolerance and brittle nails. Some infants and children have premature look referred to as an ‘old man’ facies. Characteristic dental findings include hypodontia, abnormal shaped teeth, delayed teething. Early dental treatment promotes self confidence improves individuals psychosocial condition. The parents must be educated and motivated about the importance of dental treatment in such patients. The present case is a report of 6 year old boy having defects in all the Ectodermal derivatives with significant dental findings wherein the patient’s mother was reluctant to accept the proposed treatment plan. Hence we felt that parental motivation is a prerequisite in such cases. | en_US |
