Abstract

Some medical conditions present with missing or malformed teeth and other unusual oral manifestations that complicate prosthodontic treatment. Outlining the simple and complicated treatment options to the patient allows them to make an informed decision about the treatment they wish to pursue. This report describes the management of a patient diagnosed with pseudohypoparathyroidism. Taking a patient-centred approach, with their involvement in the planning process, was essential to a successful outcome. CPD/Clinical Relevance: Adopting a holistic approach to treatment planning enables patients to make informed decisions, ensuring patient-centred care that not only targets the condition, but supports overall wellbeing.
