RELATED TO DENTAL DEFECTS CAUSING TOOTH LOSS Tooth agenesis is the most prevalent craniofacial congenital malformation in humans. Up to 25% of the population may lose at least one third molar. Agenesis of other permanent teeth, excluding third molars, ranges from 1.6 to 9.6%, depending on the population studied. Primary dentition may also be affected, but with lower prevalence (from 0.5 to 0.9%...

A case of a male patient presenting with unusual dental morphology, anterior supernumerary teeth, and agenesis of premolars associated with congenital cataracts, microphthalmia and anteverted pinna is described. Although 3 similar cases are in the medical literature, this is the first case in which the dental features are described in detail. Dental anomalies associated with many congenital and...

INTRODUCTION Maxillary canine-first premolar transposition (Mx.C.P1) is an uncommon dental positional anomaly that may create many orthodontic problems from both esthetic and functional points of view. OBJECTIVE In this report we show the orthodontic management of a case of Mx.C.P1 associated with bilateral maxillary lateral incisor agenesis and unilateral mandibular second premolar agenesis ...

Agenesis of permanent canines is a rare condition and that of both maxillary and mandibular permanent canines is extremely rare. Reports of such cases are very scarce in the literature. It may occur either isolated or in association with other dental anomalies. This paper reports an unusual case of agenesis of both the maxillary permanent canines and mandibular right permanent canine occurring ...

The prevalence of dental anomalies including agenesis, crown shape, tooth position, root shape, and invagination were examined in 111 orthodontic patients; 74.77 per cent of the patients exhibited at least one dental anomaly. Invagination was found to be the most prevalent anomaly, whereas supernumerary teeth and root dilaceration were the least frequent anomalies. Dental invagination and short...

this case of a female patient, 14 yr old with association of the two anomalies, which we came across with in 2014, is rarely met in the specialty practice. the impacted canines are part of the group of dental anomalies of position, while the agenesis is part of the group of dental number anomalies. the orthodontic treatment in the two arches has to be differentiated, the therapeutic objectives ...

Background Tooth abnormalities are most often present in individuals with oral clefts than general population, and lead to a long-term impact on facial anatomy and self-esteem. The purpose of this study was to compare the proportion of dental anomalies between the cleft side and non-cleft side in individuals with non-syndromic unilateral alveolar clefts (AC). Material and Methods Twenty cone ...

Objective: To determine the dental anomalies in children with cleft lip and palate at a tertiary care hospital. Design of Study: descriptive cross-sectional. Study Settings: was conducted OPD Dentistry Abbottabad International Medical Institute between months January 2021to June 2021. Material Methods: The convenience sampling strategy used to obtain 208 radiographs patients and/or for Data A. ...

The aim of this study was to assess the influence of maxillary lateral incisor agenesis (MLIA) on the position of other teeth in the dental arch. The sample consisted of 147 individuals (66 males and 81 females) divided into two age groups: a growth phase group (A) comprising 43 individuals (18 males and 25 females, ages ranging from 9 to 16 years) and an adult group (B) (with females older tha...
