Ion beam etching and freeze fracture techniques were utilized in conjunction with scanning electron microscopy to study the ultrastructure of normal and diseased human hair. Topographical differences in the cuticular scale of normal and diseased hair were demonstrated in previous scanning electron microscope studies. In the present study, ion beam etching and freeze fracture techniques were utilized to reveal subsurface ultrastructural features of the cuticle and cortex.Samples of normal and diseased hair including monilethrix, pili torti, pili annulati, and hidrotic ectodermal dysplasia were cut from areas near the base of the hair. In preparation for ion beam etching, untreated hairs were mounted on conducting tape on a conducting silicon substrate. The hairs were ion beam etched by an 18 ky argon ion beam (5μA ion current) from an ETEC ion beam etching device. The ion beam was oriented perpendicular to the substrate. The specimen remained stationary in the beam for exposures of 6 to 8 minutes.

Key Words Ectodermal Dysplasia

Ectodermal dysplasia is a heterogeneous group of inherited disorder affecting two or more ectodermally derived tissues such as skin, hair, nails, eccrine glands and teeth. The disorder is of two types: Hypohydrotic ectodermal dysplasia/Christ seimens –Touraine syndrome and Hydrotic ectodermal dysplasia/clousten syndrome. Commonly associated signs include hypohidrosis, anomalous dentition, onychodysplasia, hypotrichosis. Multidisciplinary approaches are required for optimal treatment3. Here, we present two cases of 19 and 13 year old male siblings who were diagnosed with the disorder based upon their clinical features. Key Words: ectodermal dysplasia, hypodontia; anomalous dentition.

The article is devoted to the issue of early orthopaedic rehabilitation of youngest preschool children with ectodermal dysplasia and congenital edentulism. The essence and details of children’s psychophysiological development at this age are revealed, as well as main pedagogical tools making it possible to adapt the children to the specific environment of the dental clinic and motivate them for undergoing long-term multistage orthopaedic dental treatment. Clinical approaches and peculiarities in the dentist’s work with children of different psychological types as well as particular aspects in their adaptation to removable dentures are described. Two clinical cases of effective orthopaedic rehabilitation of 3-years-old children with ectodermal dysplasia and congenital edentulism using full removable lamellar dentures.

Hereditary Condition

The personality of an individual is often judged by his looks. A beautiful smile brings immense pleasure, not only to the viewer but also to the wearer of the smile. Time and again in dentistry, esthetics has been the prime area of focus. Prosthodontic rehabilitation also involves esthetics as its key factor, which is challenging especially in patients with congenital diseases or syndromes. Ectodermal dysplasia is one such hereditary condition associated with failure of the development of ectoderm in the embryonic stage and can cause multiple abnormalities. The ectodermal structures like skin, nails, hair, sweat glands, and teeth are particularly affected. The management of ectodermal dysplasia is quite complex and multidisciplinary owing to the abnormal morphology in craniofacial structures, a wide array of dentofacial defects, and age of the affected individuals, as most of them are very young when they report for or are evaluated for treatment. The deciduous as well as the permanent dentition in these patients may present with anodontia, hypodontia or oligodontia or combination of these. Hypodontia is one of the most common intraoral finding among these scenarios. Therefore, the affected patients obviously require absolute attention towards prosthodontic treatments throughout their developmental years till their adulthood. This report presents a case of an adult diagnosed with having ectodermal dysplasia with hypodontia. By appropriate modification and customization, the prosthodontic management was meticulously planned for the young patient which involved a full mouth rehabilitation with tooth supported fixed prosthesis in the maxillary and mandibular arch. The devised treatment plan had a key impact on the psychological, the masticatory function, speech and facial esthetics of the patient.
