A multidisciplinary approach for the management of hypodontia: case report

Abstract: Hypodontia is the congenital absence of one or more teeth and may affect permanent teeth. Several options are indicated to treat hypodontia, including the maintenance of primary teeth or space redistribution for restorative treatment with partial adhesive bridges, tooth transplantation, and implants. However, a multidisciplinary approach is the most important requirement for the ideal treatment of hypodontia. This paper describes a multidisciplinary treatment plan for congenitally missing permanent mandibular … Show more

“…Treatment might range from single restorations to surgery and multiple restorations. 102 Management will depend upon the pattern and severity of tooth absence, the amount of spaces present and, of course, the patient's attitude. The general principle in management is to deal with the space within the dental arches: i.e.…”

“…Many studies have shown the importance of the role of interdisciplinary teams in the management of hypodontia. 8,[102][103][104][105][106] A recent book by Hobkirk et al 27 provides a comprehensive review for clinicians about the available options for the management of hypodontia adopting a multidisciplinary approach.…”

“…The treatment should be planned according to the severity of tooth agenesis, occlusion, soft tissue and skeletal pattern, facial profile, the number of remaining teeth-shape-color, location of the missing tooth, alveolar bone quantity, oral hygiene, patient care, expectations of the patient's from treatment, communication between patient-dentist and the cost of the treatment. 70 Closing space or according to the requirements of the protection of the space; orthodontic treatment, restorative treatment (crowns, bridges), autotransplantation, different treatment options such implants can be done. 70,71 If maxillary lateral incisor is missing in mixed dentition, with early extraction of primary incisors and canines; maxillary canines rather than be allowed to erupt instead of maxillary lateral incisors.…”

“…The therapeutic objective will be to create a balanced and harmonious appearance of the teeth on the arch, especially for patients who present moderate phenotypes of oligodontia that will benefit from implants and from prosthetic treatments with fixed implants and stabilized prosthesis. Closing spaces created by congenitally missing teeth could incur the risk of having harmful consequences for the facial profile by exacerbating its concavity, and this explains why opening space is more appropriate for prosthetic restoration 23 . The treatment phase of post-orthodontic retention is essential at this stage in order to have long-term stability of the ideal positions of existing teeth by implant prosthetic restoration 5 .…”
