Associated dental anomalies: case report

Abstract: Certain human dental anomalies frequently occur together, supporting the accumulated evidence of the shared genetic control of dental developmental disturbances. The present study reports a rare and interesting case of a 12-year-old girl with an association of multiple dental abnormalities, including agenesis, tooth malposition and delayed development. The etiology and treatment planning are discussed with reference to the literature. The clinical implications of genetically controlled patterns of dental anoma… Show more

“…This ectopia usually selfcorrects and does not require intervention 12,25 unless it is very severe. 26 The present sample included two cases of mesial angulation and impaction of mandibular second molars, a rare irregularity of eruption affecting 0.06% of the population. 19 The occurrence of two cases in 203 patients represents a prevalence rate of 1%, which is significantly higher compared to the prevalence for the general population ( Table 2).…”

“…The mandibular second premolar distoangulation frequently self-corrects and do not demand intervention. 12 This ectopia is defined at early stages of the dental development. During root formation, tooth germ spontaneously uprights and erupts in the dental arch (Fig 19).…”

“…On the other hand, a longitudinal follow up has demonstrated that, in cases of agenesis of premolars, the deciduous molars may be kept in the oral cavity for a long period of time. [15] Bjerklin and Bennet investigated subjects with agenesis of mandibular second premolars and retained mandibular second molars from 11 years of age until the third decade of life. During the observation period, only 2 of the 59 primary teeth were exfoliated, and beyond the age of 20 years no teeth were lost.…”
