Good morning ,
How are you .I see that that your 14 month daughter has problems with her skin and teeth.The big name that you use means that any part arising from the outer covering of the body like the skin ,teeth ,hair nails can get affected ---the spectrum of presentation is from mild to severe .and can be very varied.Best is to see a pediatric dermatologist (dr.for the skin).Please sit down ,think and write down if any of the other members in the family have similar condition .This information is important .The doctor will usually do a biopsy that is take a portion of your skin and study under micreoscpe .He will also have to take an Xray of face to see if the permanent teeth are present or affected .My advice is write the details and fix appointment --you will need support during the growing years of your child .There are some groups support available.Thanks and best of luck
