Abstract:
Ectodermal dysplasia (ED) is a group of rare hereditary disorders characterized by impaired development of ectodermal derivatives. The anhidrotic (hypohidrotic) form of ED is accompanied by pronounced hypoplasia of the jaws, partial or complete adontia, leading to functional impairments (difficulty chewing, swallowing, and speaking) and pronounced aesthetic changes. These factors have a significant impact on the quality of life of patients, causing psychological discomfort and social maladjustment. The article presents in detail a clinical case of a 20-year-old patient with anhidrotic (hypohidrotic) ED, who underwent comprehensive surgical rehabilitation.
