Genome-wide association study of primary tooth eruption identifies pleiotropic loci associated with height and craniofacial distances [PDF]
Twin and family studies indicate that the timing of primary tooth eruption is highly heritable, with estimates typically exceeding 80%. To identify variants involved in primary tooth eruption we performed a population based genome-wide association study ...

Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2A (CMT2A) is an axonal neuropathy caused by mutations in the mitofusin 2 (MFN2) gene. MFN2 mutations result in profound mitochondrial abnormalities, but the mechanism underlying the axonal pathology is unknown. Sterile α

Prevalence and Type of Dental Abnormalities Among Patients With Different Skeletal Malocclusion Classes in Northern Iran [PDF]
Background Dental abnormalities are considered important, since they cause aesthetic and functional problems for people. Orthodontic treatment becomes more complicated when craniofacial abnormalities are accompanied with dental abnormalities.

Anti–USAG-1 therapy for tooth regeneration through enhanced BMP signaling
Cell-free molecular therapy targeting USAG-1 is effective in the treatment of a wide range of congenital tooth agenesis. Uterine sensitization–associated gene-1 (USAG-1) deficiency leads to enhanced bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling, leading to ...

Tooth transposition: two case-reports and literature review
Tooth transposition is a rare developmental disorder in which a normal tooth erupts in an inappropriate position. The change in position occurs between two adjacent teeth within the same quadrant.
