- Hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia and its manifestations in the oral cavityPublication . Cardoso, Jennifer; de Faria Carvalho, Célio Domingos; Carvalho Silva, Cátia; Moura Teles, Ana; C. Leal, M. Fernanda; Lopes Cardoso, InêsThe Ectodermal Dysplasias generally present orofacial manifestations, such as skeletal discrepancies and dental alterations. Therefore, the role of a paediatric dentist in the detection and recognition of these repercussions can be crucial in early diagnosis of the disease. The oral rehabilitation of paediatric patients with this condition is extremely important, ideally, at a very early stage, yet contributing for the re-establishment of normal chewing, swallowing and phonetics functions, and, naturally, aesthetics increase. The purpose of this narrative review aims to elucidate dentists about their role in the detection, diagnosis, treatment and monitoring of the Ectodermal Dysplasia’ oral manifestations in paediatric patients, through the presentation of general physical and specific craniofacial characteristics.
