Abstract
Ectodermal dysplasias are congenital disorders which presents with the complete anodontia, oligodontia, hypodontia with poorly developed alveolar ridges. The case reports the replacement of the missing teeth by fixed metal-ceramic bridge after the growth completion with the help of the endosseous implants and the remaining natural teeth with the implant – natural teeth rigid connection. The ridge expansion in the anterior maxilla and the sinus lift in posterior maxilla was done for the implant placement in the compromised alveolar bone. The prosthesis functioned successfully after the 10 year period. The radiographs after the 10 year period showed some marginal bone loss around the implants and the occlusal wear of the ceramic prosthesis.
