Agenesis of first and second permanent molar: Literature review and cases reports

SUMMARY Tooth agenesis is the absence of one or more teeth in temporary or permanent dentition. This anomaly in craniofacial malformations is more frequent, that may occur as an isolated anomaly or as part of a genetic syndrome. The incidence of agenesis of permanent teeth varies1.6-9.6%, excluding...

description SUMMARY Tooth agenesis is the absence of one or more teeth in temporary or permanent dentition. This anomaly in craniofacial malformations is more frequent, that may occur as an isolated anomaly or as part of a genetic syndrome. The incidence of agenesis of permanent teeth varies1.6-9.6%, excluding third molars, while in primary dentition the range is 0.5 to 0.9%. The factors that are related to dental agenesis, are the genes and signaling pathways. Specifically Pax9 has been associated with the lack of permanent molars. Agenesis of the first and second permanent molars is not very common but has been reported in the literature and can be isolated or causing malocclusion. Therefore, early diagnosis is essential to establish a treatment plan to help guide the eruption of other teeth and prevent sequel due to agenesis. Four clinical cases are presented of patients with agenesis of first and second permanent molars to complement the literature review. Key words: Dental agenesis, first permanent molars, second permanent molars, malocclusion, organogenesis defect.
