Background: This case report presents the dimensional changes in dental arches in a patient with hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (HED) after complete denture rehabilitation, with an 18-year follow-up period. Case report: The patient had complete anodontia and was successfully rehabilitated with conventional complete dentures at 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 12, 16, and 21 years of age. Each successive denture was larger and contained more and larger teeth so as to accommodate for the increase in the size of the developing jaw. A series of diagnostic casts were used to measure the dimensional changes in the arch length and width of the alveolar ridge. Cast analysis revealed that there was an increase in arch length and width in both the maxilla and mandible over time. Cephalometric analysis of craniofacial development was performed at 21 years of age, and suggested protrusion of the maxilla and mandible. Conclusions: The absence of teeth due to HED did not affect the dimensional changes in dental arches after complete denture rehabilitation from childhood to adulthood. The prosthetic treatment improved the patient’s social integration and enabled the development of normal dietary habits, speech, and facial esthetics, which in turn led to improved quality of life.

Ectodermal dysplasia is a rare hereditary disorder with a characteristic physiognomy. The case of a 5-year-old child with hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia and complete anodontia is presented. Because of the anodontia and the need for treatment at an early age, the prosthetic management of such a young child can be difficult. Complete dentures were provided to encourage a normal psychological development and to improve the function of the stomatognathic system.

ABSTRACT Objectives A combination of the neutral zone and the polished surface impression techniques is a useful method to reserve the functional and physiological forms of the underlying mandibular residual ridge by enhancing both retention and stability in Malaysian geriatric patients (2-year clinical study). Materials and methods A total of 25 Malaysian geriatric patients have participated in the current study. Two sets of dentures were served to the patients. The first set was constructed according the conventional method of complete denture construction whereas the second set was constructed by using neutral zone and polished surface impression techniques. Results The patients were followed up for 2 years and the obtained results showed that all patients have stopped using the conventional dentures and continued with the test dentures. The comparative analysis exhibited significant difference (p < 0.05) in favor of test dentures. Conclusion Combination of the neutral zone and the polished surface techniques can impart a physiological reservation to the underlying residual ridge without changes. Statement of problem It is common for completely edentulous geriatric patients to have resorbed mandibular residual ridge because of the process of aging. Some surgical interactions are contraindicated for this age group of patients, so, neutral zone technique and/or polished surface impression verified effective in improving stability for lower complete dentures. In spite of the fact that the above mentioned methods often used to enhance stability of complete denture, most of the studies were relying on only one of those methods to improve stability rather than retention. Researcher hypothesis stated that a combination of the neutral zone and the polished surface impression techniques should be performed together to enhance both stability and retention and henceforth reservation of the residual ridge under mandibular complete dentures issued to the patients with a constant follow-up for two consecutive years.

Hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia is a heritable disease, characterized by hypodontia, hypotrichosis, and anhidrosis. This clinical report demonstrates prosthetic rehabilitation of a patient complaining of impaired mastication and the odd appearance of her jaws. Maxillary telescopic-overdenture and implant-supported mandibular prostheses were fabricated to improve mastication, speech, and aesthetics of the patient.

The aim of the present study was to evidence the improved behavior of our modified PMMA-TiO2 nanocomposite material used to obtain 3D printed complete dentures. A protocol for long-term rapid prototyping complete denture manufacturing using our nanocomposite material, completely characterized and the evaluation of the clinical performance and complications after eighteen months of continuous wearing was also described. Thirty-five fully edentulous patients were enrolled in this prospective clinical study and forty-five complete dentures (31 maxillary and 14 mandibular) have been obtained using an additive manufacturing technology. Due to the good performances of the nanocomposite material, no major functional complications for the obtained medical devices occurred and the clinical outcomes for the 3D printed dentures were favorable evaluated at eighteen months follow up.
