Alternative Treatments\nIn childhood, a removable partial denture (RPD) or complete overdenture is often the treatment of choice because of the need to easily modify the intraoral prosthesis during rapid growth periods.

Prosthodontic treatment in patients with ectodermal dysplasia is difficult to manage because of the oral deficiencies typical in this disorder and because afflicted individuals are quite young when they are evaluated for treatment.

However, the published reports about implant application in young patients are as yet very limited. Well controlled, randomized, prospective longitudinal trials that include a sufficient number of patients are needed; and for a successful outcome, a multidisciplinary approach for oral and maxillofacial rehabilitation of these patients is strongly recommended."}
