1.1 Anodontia, Hypodontia and Oligodontia

1.1.1 Definition/Description

  • Anodontia: All teeth are developmentally (congenitally) missing
  • Hypodontia: one to six developmentally (congenitally) missing teeth except the third molars
  • Oligodontia: more than six developmentally (congenitally) missing teeth

1.1.2 Frequency

  • Anodontia: extremely rare
  • Hypodontia: incidence: 4.4–13.4%. The most common developmental anomaly
  • Oligodontia: incidence: 0.25%
  • Hypodontia of the deciduous teeth affects less than 1% of children

1.1.3 Aetiology/Risk Factors

  • Anodontia: mutations in EDA, EDAR and EDARADD genes
  • Hypodontia: mutations in MSX1, PAX9, IRF6, GREM2, AXIN2, LRP6, SMOC2, LTBP3, PITX2 and WNT10B. WNT10A genes
  • Oligodontia: mutations in MSX1, PAX9, IRF6, GREM2, AXIN2, LRP6, SMOC2, LTBP3, PITX2 and WNT10B. WNT10A genes
  • Environmental factors: hypodontia can result from trauma to the developing dental tissues such as chemotherapy or radiotherapy

1.1.4 Clinical Features

  • The most common missing multiple teeth (other than third molars) are:
    • Maxillary lateral incisors (Figure 1.1). This is followed by the mandibular second premolars and maxillary second premolars
    • Skin/nails/hair/sweat glands may be affected in some cases of hypodontia
    • Morphology of teeth may be defective (micr...
