Genetic Variants in miRNAs Are Associated With Risk of Non-syndromic Tooth Agenesis
Non-syndromic tooth agenesis (NSTA) is one of the most common dental abnormalities. MiRNAs participated in the craniofacial and tooth development. Therefore, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in miRNA genes may contribute to the susceptibility of ...

Involvement of and interaction between WNT10A and EDA mutations in tooth agenesis cases in the Chinese population. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Dental agenesis is the most common, often heritable, developmental anomaly in humans. Although WNT10A gene mutations are known to cause rare syndromes associated with tooth agenesis, including onycho-odontodermal dysplasia (OODD), Schöpf ...

Rare phenotype: Hand preaxial polydactyly associated with LRP6-related tooth agenesis in humans
Low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 6 (LRP6) is a pathogenic gene of selective tooth agenesis-7 (OMIM#616724). Although the malformation of the digits and fore- and hindlimbs has been reported in Lrp6-deficient mice, it has been rarely ...

Patterns of incisor-premolar agenesis combinations: A retrospective study
Background: Tooth agenesis is the most common dental anomaly which causes serious problems in humans. Many theories were asserted to explain the main etiologic factor of this anomaly, and genetic factors were considered as primary reasons.

Induced Ankylosis of a Primary Molar for Skeletal Anchorage in the Mandible as Alternative to Mini-Implants [PDF]
Background Mesial protraction of mandibular posterior teeth requires increased anchorage to avoid undesired tooth movements. Orthodontic mini-implants have become a popular and successful way to increase skeletal anchorage in such cases.

Mutation analysis by direct and whole exome sequencing in familial and sporadic tooth agenesis [PDF]
Dental agenesis is one of the most common congenital craniofacial abnormalities. Dental agenesis can be classified, relative to the number of missing teeth (excluding third molars), as hypodontia (1 to 5 missing teeth), oligodontia (6 or more missing ...

Valutazione delle anomalie dentarie in soggetti con differenti tipi di schisi orofacciali [PDF]
Background and aim: Subjects with nonsyndromic cleft lip and/or palate (CLP) present high frequency of hypodontia, both inside and outside the cleft region, which may represent a complicating factor for the dental management.

The effect of tooth agenesis on dentofacial structures [PDF]
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of tooth agenesis on dentofacial structures according to the location of the absent teeth. A total of 74 subjects were classified to three main groups and four subgroups according to the location of the absent teeth. Thirteen subjects without tooth agenesis were selected as the control group.
