“…[2324] The other possible factors may be localized inflammations or infections having damaged the tooth germs in the alveolar bone. [25] Several researches evaluated the prevalence of familial distribution in relatives of individuals with hypodontia and showed that it was considerably greater than that of the general population.…”

Objective:The aim of this retrospective study was to assess the prevalence and distribution of hypodontia in the permanent dentition in a sample of Turkish patients who referred to the Ankara Dental Hospital for orthodontic treatment.Materials and Methods:The pre-treatment orthodontic records of 2530 patients, 1382 girls (54.62%) and 1148 boys (45.38%) between the chronological ages of 7 and 16 years, were examined for evidence of hypodontia. The third molars were excluded in this study.Results:The prevalence of hypodontia in the inspected population was 5% (3.05% for girls, 1.95% for boys). The average number of the congenitally missing teeth per patient was 2.03 (1.08 for girls, 0.95 for boys). The prevalence of the congenitally missing permanent teeth was 34% for the upper laterals, 30% for the lower second premolars, 12.5% for the upper second premolars and 23.5% for the other teeth. Most patients with hypodontia (84.9%) (57.13% for girls, 27.77% for boys) had got missing either one tooth (45.23%) or two teeth (39.67%).Conclusions:The prevalence of hypodontia in girls was higher than in boys in this sample of the Turkish patients. The upper laterals and lower second premolars were consecutively the most symmetrically absent teeth. The prevalence of advanced hypodontia was lower than single and symmetrical hypodontia.

SummaryWe are reporting a rare case of missing teeth in primary dentition. The case reported with the chief complaint of missing teeth in the lower front tooth region. The concern of the parents was missing primary teeth but they were also worried about the permanent successors. Thorough evaluation of the primary dentition visually and permanent dentition radiographically was done. There was missing 72 and 82.Along with these, there were few permanent teeth, that is, lack of initiation of 35 and 45 and 22 was evident. The case was non-syndromic. At present, the case is under follow-up. BACKGROUND
