“…Additionally, Case 3 also showed microdontia in the form of maxillary peg shaped laterals. The treatment approach for hypodontia is specific to each case and is dependent on many factors such as the number of teeth missing, the condition and longevity of the primary predecessor, size and number of teeth remaining in both arches, the occlusal status, facial growth patterns, patient and parent preferences including the financial aspect of the treatment options offered [4,16,17]. A multidisciplinary approach is highly recommended which helps in the short and long-term treatment planning.…”

Aim:The aim of this case report is to discuss the features of non-syndromic familial hypodontia, which was noted in three siblings who had an unremarkable medical history. Summary: Congenital absence of teeth is a common dental anomaly referring to teeth that fail to erupt in the oral cavity and remain invisible in radiographs. Congenital tooth agenesis is defined by the number of missing teeth, excluding the third molars; hypodontia refers to the absence of less than six teeth, while oligodontia is the absence of six or more teeth. Tooth agenesis can occur as part of a genetic syndrome such as the cleft lip and palate, ectodermal dysplasia and Trisomy 21 (syndromic hypodontia) or an isolated trait (nonsyndromic hypodontia). Non-syndromic hypodontia is the most common form and can be familial or sporadic. The most supported etiological theory suggests that tooth agenesis may be due to a combination of genetic and environmental factors, which lead to disturbances in the tooth germ during the initial formation stages. This case series reports bilateral agenesis of the maxillary canines in siblings, which is quite rare in occurrence. The management of these anomalies involves a multidisciplinary approach in order to restore esthetics and function. An early diagnosis can lead to effective treatment planning and satisfactory results. Key learning points:The clinical manifestations as well as the short and long term management of this condition are discussed.

“…Mild to moderate hypodontia may occur due to early irradiation of tooth germs, various kinds of trauma of the dental region, Down syndrome, and syndromes associated with cleft lip or palate. [ 7 ] The etiology of tooth agenesis has generated much debate. It supposed to be multifactorial involving several factors such as genetics; environment; or combination of environmental and genetic factors might contribute to the occurrence of dental agenesis.…”

Agenesis of permanent canines is a rare condition, and that of both maxillary and mandibular permanent canines is extremely rare. It may occur either isolated or in association with other dental anomalies. Reports of such cases are very scarce in the literature. Need for early diagnosis of such conditions should be emphasized because of functional, esthetic, and psychological problems which should be evaluated and treated appropriately. The present paper presents a report of bilaterally missing permanent maxillary and mandibular canines. This case might contribute in the future studies of incidence of agenesis of permanent canines.

Congenitally missing teeth (CMT) are among one of the commonly known dental anomalies. The most frequently missing teeth in the permanent dentition, excluding the third molars, are mandibular second premolars and maxillary lateral incisors. Exclusive agenesis of both maxillary canines is an extremely rare occurrence and only a few cases have been reported. Previous studies showed that the prevalence of maxillary canine agenesis varies between 0.07 and 0.13%. In recent studies on Indian population, no cases of maxillary canine agenesis have been documented. This paper reports a case of non-syndromic bilateral agenesis of permanent maxillary canines, along with agenesis of both mandibular central incisors in a healthy 13-year-old Indian female patient; and a brief literature review on prevalence, etiology and treatment modalities of the condition.How to cite this article: Kambalimath HV, Jain S, Patil RU, Asokan A, Kambalimath D.
