Abstract:Congenital tooth agenesis (CTA) is one of the most common craniofacial anomalies. Its frequency varies among different population depending upon the genetic heterogeneity.CTA could be of familial or sporadic and syndromic or non-syndromic. Five major genes are found to be associated with non-syndromic CTA namely, PAX9, MSX1, EDA1, AXIN2 and WNT10A. In this study, an India family with CTA was investigated and a novel c.336C>G variation was identified in the exon 3 of PAX9, leading to substitution of evolutionar… Show more
