Oral myiasis is a rare disease caused by larvae of certain dipteran flies. A case of oral myiasis caused by chrysomya bezziana, in the maxillary anterior region in a 20 year old mentally challenged female patient is reported. Manual removal of the larvae by topical application of turpentine oil, surgical debridement of the oral wound, followed by oral therapy with broad spectrum antibiotics were used to manage the patient.

Hereditary Ectodermal dysplasias are a group of X-linked recessive inherited disorders characterised by primary defects in the development of two or more tissues derived from embryonic ectoderm. The tissues which are affected include skin, hair, nails, eccrine glands and teeth. Here, we report two cases of hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia in male siblings.
