Ectodermal dysplasia is a complex group of diseases with clinical features related mainly with ectodermal structures such as skin, skin appendages, hair, nails, sweat glands and teeth. Among the dental alterations, the absence of some teeth and morphologic anomalies are extremely common, both in the primary and permanent teeth resulting in esthetical and functional compromise. This report aims to present teeth abnormalities and the clinical procedures involved in the child's oral rehabilitation carried out in order to restore the function, the esthetical and the psychological equilibrium.
