Abstract
Background: Tooth agenesis refers to the absence of one or more of the deciduous or permanent teeth. Tooth agenesis results from a series of disrupted reciprocal ectodermal mesenchymal interactions taking place during the early stages of tooth development.
Methods: A narrative literature review was performed to describe the main genetic syndromes associated with tooth agenesis.
Results and conclusions: The etiology of congenital tooth agenesis is multifactorial and include genetic, epigenetic, and environmental influences. Syndromes associated with chromosomal alterations, ectodermal dysplasia, Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome, oral-facial cleft syndromes, and syndromes with cancer predisposition are among the main entities presenting with tooth agenesis.
Clinical relevance: Tooth agenesis disorders can affect the masticatory function and cause disfigurement leading to physiological and psychological complications. Early recognition of these entities is crucial to guide the management of the patient and to provide families with the appropriate genetic counseling.
期刊介绍:
The journal Clinical Oral Investigations is a multidisciplinary, international forum for publication of research from all fields of oral medicine. The journal publishes original scientific articles and invited reviews which provide up-to-date results of basic and clinical studies in oral and maxillofacial science and medicine. The aim is to clarify the relevance of new results to modern practice, for an international readership. Coverage includes maxillofacial and oral surgery, prosthetics and restorative dentistry, operative dentistry, endodontics, periodontology, orthodontics, dental materials science, clinical trials, epidemiology, pedodontics, oral implant, preventive dentistiry, oral pathology, oral basic sciences and more.
