[Recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa. Oral manifestations apropos of 3 cases].

Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB) constitutes a group of genetic disorders characterized by bullae and vesicle formation on the skin and mucosa. Three cases of recessive EB that may be clinically classified as recessive dystrophic EB (RDEB) are described. In two cases dental treatment consisted of extractions and restorative therapy under local anesthesia. In all three cases individual home and professional preventive programs were established and no new decays were observed during the next years. Dental management under local anesthesia is emphasized by the authors.
