Genetic polymorphism in esr2 and risk of tooth agenesis
Introduction: Tooth agenesis (TA) is the congenital absence of teeth. Several studies have proposed a strong genetic background for this condition. Aim: The present cross-sectional study aimed to evaluate whether genetic polymorphisms in the genes that code for estrogen receptors (ESR1 and ESR2) are associated with the presence of isolated TA in a ...

Novel frameshift variant of WNT10A in a Japanese patient with hypodontia
Congenital tooth agenesis is caused by the impairment of crucial genes related to tooth development, such as Wnt signaling pathway genes. Here, we investigated the genetic causes of sporadic congenital tooth agenesis. Exome sequencing, followed by Sanger

Is Third-Molar Agenesis Related to the Incidence of Other Missing Teeth?
Objective:The aim of this study was to investigate whether third-molar agenesis is related to agenesis of other missing teeth (incisor-premolar hypodontia [IPH]).Materials and Method:A sample of 94 Turkish patients with agenesis of upper lateral incisors

Patterns of tooth agenesis in individuals with Down syndrome
AbstractAimsTooth agenesis (TA) is common in Down syndrome (DS). It is unknown whether this agenesis occurs in specific patterns, which is important regarding treatment planning and aetiological research. This study aimed to aggregate and analyze patterns of TA, excluding third molars, in individuals with DS using the tooth agenesis code (TAC).Methods ...

Third molar agenesis among children and youths from three major races of Malaysians
Background/purpose: Third molar (M3) agenesis is linked to the evolution and growth of the human jaw, as it is the last tooth to develop in the human dentition.
