“…The prevalence of Hypodontia was the most common anomaly in this study. Among the numerical anomalies congenitally missing permanent teeth were the most prevalent anomaly in children, which is similar to the findings reported by previous studies (1,2). However regarding the congenitally missing permanent teeth, the types of teeth reported to be missing varied in different ethnic groups.…”

“…Local as well as systemic factors may be responsible for these developmental disturbances (2). Although asymptomatic, these anomalies can lead to clinical problems, including delayed or non-eruption of the normal series of teeth; attrition; breast feeding problems; compromised esthetics; occlusal interference; accidental cusp fracture; interference with tongue space, causing difficulty in speech and mastication; temporomandibular joint pain and dysfunction; malocclusion; periodontal problems because of excessive occlusal force; post-eruptive tooth breakdown; and increased susceptibility to caries.…”

BackgroundDental anomalies are not an unusual finding in routine dental examination. The effect of dental anomalies can lead to functional, esthetic and occlusal problems. The Purpose of the study was to determine the prevalence and distribution of selected developmental dental anomalies in Saudi children. Material and MethodsThe study was based on clinical examination and Panoramic radiographs of children who visited the Pediatric dentistry clinics at King Khalid University College of Dentistry, Saudi Arabia. These patients were examined for dental anomalies in size, shape, number, structure and position. Data collected were entered and analyzed using statistical package for social sciences version.ResultsOf the 1252 children (638 Boys, 614 girls) examined, 318 subjects (25.39%) presented with selected dental anomalies. The distribution by gender was 175 boys (27.42%) and 143 girls (23.28%). On intergroup comparison, number anomalies was the most common anomaly with Hypodontia (9.7%) being the most common anomaly in Saudi children, followed by hyperdontia (3.5%). The Prevalence of size anomalies were Microdontia (2.6%) and Macrodontia (1.8%). The prevalence of Shape anomalies were Talon cusp (1.4%), Taurodontism (1.4%), Fusion (0.8%).The prevalence of Positional anomalies were Ectopic eruption (2.3%) and Rotation (0.4%). The prevalence of structural anomalies were Amelogenesis imperfecta (0.3%) Dentinogenesis imperfecta (0.1%).ConclusionsA significant number of children had dental anomaly with Hypodontia being the most common anomaly and Dentinogenesis imperfecta being the rare anomaly in the study. Early detection and management of these anomalies can avoid potential orthodontic and esthetic problems in a child. Key words:Dental anomalies, children, Saudi Arabia.

“…Sometimes, tooth germs may fuse or germinate during development [Guttal et al, 2010], resulting in teeth with separate pulp chambers joined at the dentin or teeth with a common pulp chamber, respectively. It is often difficult to differentiate between the two, but if a lateral incisor is missing it is most likely because of fusion of the central and lateral incisor primordia.…”

Dental anomalies are common congenital malformations that can occur either as isolated findings or as part of a syndrome. This review focuses on genetic causes of abnormal tooth development and the implications of these abnormalities for clinical care. As an introduction, we describe general insights into the genetics of tooth development obtained from mouse and zebrafish models. This is followed by a discussion of isolated as well as syndromic tooth agenesis, including Van der Woude syndrome, ectodermal dysplasias, oral-facial-digital syndrome type I, Rieger syndrome, holoprosencephaly, and tooth anomalies associated with cleft lip and palate. Next, we review delayed formation and eruption of teeth, as well as abnormalities in tooth size, shape and form. Finally, isolated and syndromic causes of supernumerary teeth are considered, including cleidocranial dysplasia and Gardner syndrome.

Objectives: Taurodontism is a dental anomaly used to describe vertically elongated pulp chamber with apically positioned pulpal floor and absence of the usual constriction at the cementoenamel junction (CEJ). It commonly involved permanent molar teeth especially mandibular molars.Aim: This study was aimed to investigate the Prevalence of Taurodontism in an Egyptian Population permanent molar teeth.Study Design: 1560 patients, from age between 18 to 40 years old were examined by panoramic radiographs for the existence of taurodontism Results: Taurodontism was found in 9 patients with a Prevalence of 0.6% and 0.38 % of which were males and 0.12 % females. Taurodontism was significantly more common in mandible than in maxilla. Conclusion:Taurodontism in the Egyptian population is relatively uncommon phenomena.
