Congenitally missing teeth (CMT), or as usually called hypodontia, is a highly prevalent and
costly dental anomaly. Besides an unfavorable appearance, patients with missing teeth may …

The genetic control of dental development represents a complex series of events, which can
very schematically be divided in two pathways: specification of type, size and position of …

Certain discrete malpositions of the human canine tooth and agenesis of at least 1 tooth
(hypodontia) are abnormalities known to occur together frequently. This study examines the …

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 …

The congenital absence of teeth is one of the commonest developmental abnormalities seen
in human populations. Familial hypodontia or oligodontia represents an absence of varying …

Experimental and animal studies, as well as genetic mutations in man, have indicated that
the development of dentition is under the control of several genes. So far, mutations in MSX1 …
