ABSTRACT
The authors' experience with oral rehabilitation of patients suffering from oligodontia (i.e. six or more congenitally missing permanent teeth, third molars excluded) is reported. The concept is based on an interdisciplinary team approach involving pedodontists, orthodontists, maxillofacial surgeons and prosthodontists. A series of 112 consecutive patients suffering from oligodontia were referred from 1997 to 2001. Ten of the patients (8.9%) suffered from ectodermal dysplasia. The total number of missing teeth was 1126, with an average of 10 per patient. Ninety-two patients had either finished treatment or were on an active treatment schedule. Of these, 97% underwent some kind of orthodontic treatment. Of the 112 patients, 51 had finished treatment at the end of the follow-up period (mean 28 months, range 1-68). Of these, fixed implant-supported prosthetic restoration was used in 90% to replace missing teeth, often combined with alveolar ridge augmentations (73%), sinus floor augmentation (43%), inferior alveolar nerve transposition (18%) and orthognathic surgery (27%). Early diagnosis, and comprehensive treatment planning with good coordination and timing of the individual treatment phases are decisive for a successful treatment outcome. The therapeutic concept is presented with special emphasis on surgical aspects.
