“…The lateral incisor on the cleft side has a high prevalence of microdontia (88.3%), consistent with previous studies showing that these teeth frequently exhibit reduced size [ 36 – 38 ]. Hence, employing moderate orthodontic forces is necessary to minimize the risk of excessive stress on the tooth, preventing potential root resorption.…”

Objectives This study aims to provide insights into the developmental characteristics of the upper lateral incisor in individuals with unilateral clefts. Materials and methods Panoramic radiographs of a consistent group of Caucasian children taken over time (ages 6, 9, and 12) were extensively reviewed. The study assessed the distribution pattern, eruption path, tooth development, and crown size of the upper lateral incisor within the cleft region. Results The most commonly observed distribution pattern was the lateral incisor located distal to the cleft, accounting for 49.2% of cases. Furthermore, a significant delay in tooth development of the upper lateral incisor on the cleft side was noted at ages 6 and 9 (p > 0.001). Compared with the non-cleft side, these incisors often erupted along the alveolar cleft and exhibited microdontia (88.3%, p < 0.041). Conclusion Lateral incisors on the cleft side display unique distribution patterns, microdontia, and delayed tooth development. Careful monitoring of the cuspid eruption is essential, as it can influence the eruption of the lateral incisor. Clinical relevance A comprehensive understanding of the development of the upper lateral incisor relative to the cleft is vital for determining its prognosis over time. The position of the upper lateral incisor can also influence the timing and prognosis of secondary alveolar bone grafting. Preserving the upper lateral incisor favors arch length, perimeter, and symmetry in individuals with unilateral clefts.

Objective This study aimed to investigate the prevalent pattern of congenital tooth agenesis and the development of crown width in patients with alveolar clefts in Guizhou, China. Methods The imaging data and complete medical record information of 222 patients who met the criteria were studied. The rate of tooth agenesis, tooth agenesis patterns, type of cleft, gender, and crown width in patients with alveolar cleft were counted. Results Twenty-two congenital tooth agenesis patterns were statistically identified in patients with alveolar clefts by the tooth agenesis code method. The rate of congenital tooth agenesis in patients with alveolar cleft was 72.5%, and the most common missing teeth were lateral incisors. The rate of tooth agenesis was higher in bilateral alveolar cleft (87.1%) than in unilateral alveolar cleft (67.4%). No correlation was found between gender and tooth agenesis patterns, tooth agenesis rate, or number of missing teeth. Crown width in patients with alveolar clefts is less than normal. No correlation was found between the number of missing teeth and crown width. Conclusions The congenital tooth agenesis patterns and tooth agenesis rates in patients with alveolar clefts in Guizhou, China, were related to the type of cleft, independent of gender. The crown widths in patients with alveolar clefts were smaller than normal, irrespective of the number of tooth agenesis.
