Aim: The purpose of the case report was to highlight the clinical features and multidisciplinary approach to managing children suffering from Christ-Siemens-Touraine syndrome with complete anodontia and its prosthetic rehabilitation. Background: Christ-Siemens-Touraine syndrome, which is a recessive autosomal disorder, is the most common form of Heredity Ectodermal dysplasia in which two or more ectodermally derived anatomic structures fail to develop, thus leading to hypoplasia or aplasia of structures such as skin, hair, nails, teeth, nerve cells, sweat glands, parts of the eye and ear and other organs. Case report: A 7-year-old boy and his 6-year-old younger sibling were referred to the Department of Pediatric & Preventive Dentistry with the chief complaint of missing teeth in the whole mouth and difficulty in speaking and chewing. After thorough examination and evaluation, in order to improve appearance, mastication, and speech, removable complete maxillary and mandibular dentures were planned to be the best treatment choice.
