Autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis is a heterogenous group of disorders that are present at birth with generalized involvement of skin and lack of other organ systems. Clinical presentation, pattern of inheritance, and laboratory evaluation may establish a precise diagnosis, which can assist in prognosis and genetic counseling. There is a little knowledge about the oral manifestations of these disorders.This case report presents management and complete oral rehabilitation of a rare case of lamellar ichthyosis.
