Pediatr Dent. 2000 Jan-Feb;22(1):49-52.

Abstract

A five-year-old Japanese girl was referred to our clinic for non-eruption of the teeth. Panoramic radiographs revealed absence of all teeth of both primary and permanent dentitions. She showed hypotricosis, hypohidrosis, and anodontia. In this article, the reported cases of anodontia were reviewed and the fabricating procedure of full dentures for a young child was described.
