This report describes the prosthodontic management of a 16‑year‑ old female diagnosed with nonsyndromic familial anodontia who presented with retained primary teeth and complete absence of permanent tooth buds. A fixed interim prosthesis was planned to restore oral function, improve facial esthetics, and support psychosocial well‑being. Full‑mouth impressions were made, and a heat‑cure acrylic resin prosthesis was fabricated, using the remaining deciduous teeth as abutments for retention. Standard prosthodontic procedures—including diagnostic mounting, facebow transfer, centric relation recording, and final impressions—were followed to ensure optimal fit and function. The patient exhibited excellent adaptation to the prosthesis, with noticeable improvement in mastication, speech, and facial appearance. Significant psychological benefits were also observed, including enhanced social interaction and increased self‑ confidence. Follow‑up evaluations revealed no major complications, and the prosthesis remained stable and functional. This case highlights that fixed interim prostheses offer an effective, minimally invasive solution for adolescents with anodontia, providing functional, esthetic, and psychological benefits until they reach skeletal maturity and become candidates for definitive long‑term rehabilitation.  \nKeywords: Anodontia, deciduous teeth, ectodermal dysplasia, fixed prosthesis, prosthodontics   \nIntroduction  \nTooth agenesis,  \nof permanent  \nespecially the complete absence teeth, is a rare condition that  \naffects oral function, aesthetics, and psychosocial development. [1] Isolated anodontia refers to the congenital absence of all permanent teeth without any associated syndromic condition, typically diagnosed in adolescence when the normal transition from primary to permanent teeth fails. [2] In some cases, retained deciduous teeth persist beyond their expected exfoliation period, serving as the only functional dentition.

[4] Ectodermal dysplasia affects hair, nails, teeth, and skin, while Axenfeld–Rieger syndrome involves maxillary and mandibular hypoplasia, hypodontia, and enamel hypoplasia. IP, a genetic disorder, leads to varying forms of hypodontia and delayed eruption. Prolonged malnutrition or endocrine disorders like hypothyroidism can also delay tooth development.
