Abstract

Congenitally missing teeth creates significant challenges to the clinicians in both diagnosis and management. The need for interdisciplinary involvement is essential for optimum dental care. The purpose of this clinical report is to describe an interdisciplinary management of a 15-year-old adolescent presented with non-syndromic oligodontia. The principle of management is presented with special emphasis on prosthodontic aspects. Various restorative treatment modalities specified for oligodontia patients are outlined.
