Nonsyndromic Familial Oligodontia with Multiple Dens Invaginatus: A Case Report of an Unusual Case

Nonsyndromic Familial Oligodontia with Multiple Dens Invaginatus: A Case Report of an Unusual Case

Oligodontia is a rare dental anomaly with a prevalence of 0.3% in permanent teeth and much less frequency in the primary dentition. Familial oligodontia represents an absence of varying numbers of primary and/or secondary teeth as an isolated trait. It is a complex and multifactorial condition. Many explanations-evolutionary, genetic, and environmental-have been proposed as the etiology. Simult...

Rare Case of Double Dens Invaginatus in a Supernumerary Tooth - An Unusual Case Report

Teeth in both maxillary and mandibular arches may be affected, but the permanent maxillary lateral incisors are the most frequently involved teeth. The invagination ranges from slight accentuation of a lingual pit to an anomaly occupying most of the crown and ro...

Nonsyndromic Oligodontia with Ankyloglossia: a Rare Case Report

Agenesis of teeth is one of the most common human developmental anomalies. Oligodontia is a condition in which there is absence of six or more teeth, which itself is a rare condition. Oligodontia is associated with many syndromes. There is no much literature on oligodontia with ankylogossia. This is case report of a 9 year old girl child, who had missing permanent mandibular anterior teeth and ...

Clinical Management of Dens Invaginatus Type 3: A Case Report

Dens invagination (DI) is a developmental abnormality of teeth which frequently results in a complex internal anatomy of the root canal system. DI type 3 is an anomaly characterized by infolding of enamel and dentin extending into the root apex. This may present difficulties when forming a diagnosis and treatment plan. Many treatment modalities have been presented in case reports for DI type 3,...
