Rootless teeth: Dentin dysplasia type I

Abstract: A rare case of hereditary disturbance of dentine, Dentin dysplasia type I is presented, which is characterized by short or total absence of roots, obliterated pulp chambers, and peri-apical radiolucencies. It affects both primary and secondary dentition. Management of patients with dentinal dysplasia is difficult and requires a multidisciplinary approach. An overview of dentin dysplasia and its management along with a case report is discussed.

“…We observed narrowed dental pulp cavities, increased dentin thickness, and abnormal tooth attrition in both Ssuh2 +/− and Ssuh2 −/− mice by μCT (Fig. b,A), consistent with the clinical characteristics of DDI patients [Toomarian et al., ; Fulari et al., ; de et al., ]. In addition, similar levels of tooth attrition occurred in MT TG mice with a normal diet and those with a soft diet.…”

“…We identified a large Chinese family with autosomal‐dominant DDI according to clinical and radiographic diagnostic features (Toomarian et al., ; Fulari et al., ; de et al., ).The family had 14 affected members in a six‐generation pedigree (Fig. ), and affected individuals appeared in good general health and exhibited no abnormalities upon extraoral examination (Supp.…”

“…In many cases, like in the case described above, the endodontic treatment is not possible, which is why it is so important to prevent pulp complications [5]. It is frequently possible to suppress the inflammation around root apexes by curettage procedures with the application of medicines into gingival pockets [9,19,21].…”

“…1,2 The first case reported with this condition was in 1920 termed as "rootless teeth", and in 1939, Rushton termed this condition as DD. 3 Dentinal dysplasia is classified into radicular dentin dysplasia (DDI) and coronal dysplasia (DDII). Both types include generalized/ multiple involvements of the primary and permanent dentitions.…”
