Telescopic crown attachments have been successfully used in completely and partially edentulous patients. This type of attachment provides retention, support, and stability with optimal hygiene for the removable dental prosthesis (RDP). With the emergence of CAD/CAM technology, telescopic crown attachments can be virtually designed and milled precisely to ensure a passive fit of the attachment parts and maximal functionality of the RDP. This article reviews both the clinical outcome and prosthodontic rehabilitation of telescopic crown attachments of an edentulous ectodermal dysplasia patient with solitary rigid conical telescopic crown attachments.

Functional and esthetic oral rehabilitation of young patients affected by ectodermal dysplasia is traditionally performed with direct composite restorations, which encounter various limitations. However, recent advances in computer-aided design/computer-assisted manufacturing (CAD/CAM) composites have led to the introduction of high-performance materials. In the present case report, a 9-year-old patient was treated with 20 CAD/CAM partial and peripheral restorations in polymer-infiltrated-ceramic-network material to restore deciduous and permanent teeth. The restorations were minimally invasive, since they did not require any tooth tissue preparation. Appropriate occlusal relationships with increased vertical dimension of occlusion were obtained. Tooth anatomy and esthetics were significantly improved, and chairtime was reduced.
