•
To know the definition, clinical features, histological features, treatment and prognosis for specific examples of dermatologic treatment, and prognosis for specific examples of dermatologic disease. To apply that knowledge to case based problems.
Discuss, define, identify and apply the vocabulary for clinical characteristics of diseases of the oral region through specific disease examples.
Develop the concept of clinical classification of disease based on the clinical characteristics of the lesion and apply that concept to the clinical characteristics of the lesion and apply that concept to the development of differential diagnosis in clinical examples
To develop a differential diagnosis for case examples.
To apply that differential diagnosis toward developing a treatment plan for case examples.
Ectodermal Dysplasia
Ectodermal Dysplasia
• Two or more ectodermal structures fail to develop
– Skin, hair, nails, teeth, sweat glands
– AD, AR, X-linked
AR
• Clinical Features
– Hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia dysplasia
• Mostly X-linked
• Heat intolerance
• Sparse hair, periorbital skin hyperpigmentation skin hyperpigmentation, midface hypoplasia, xerostomia, dystrophic nails hypodontia
• Oligodontia, hypodontia
Ectodermal Dysplasia
Ectodermal Dysplasia
• Histopathologic Features
– Decreased number and number and hypoplastic sweat glands and hair follicles
• Treatment and Prognosis
– Genetic counseling
– Dental restoration

•
Treatment and Prognosis
– Treatment based on severity of lesions • Laser, skin graft, etc skin graft etc
– May need prophylactic antibiotic coverage Ehlers
