Abstract :
Ectodermal dysplasia is characterised by hypotrichosis, hypohidrosis and hypodontia. This X linked Mendelian type
involving one or more ectodermal structures is usually seen in males rather than females.Etiology leads to disorder in the
morphological aspect of cutaneous and oral embryonic ectoderm. We report a case of 18 year old male presenting features
of ectodermal dysplasia with multiple impacted teeth in maxilla and mandible.
