  • Title: [Development of the dentition in cleidocranial dysplasia].
    Author: Jensen BL, Kreiborg S.
    Journal: Tandlaegebladet; 1991 Dec; 95(18):852-7. PubMed ID: 1817380.
    Abstract:
    The purpose of the present investigation was to describe the formation, maturation and eruption of the dentition, including supernumerary teeth in a sample of patients with cleidocranial dysplasia. The dentition was evaluated from orthopantomograms, intraoral radiographs, cephalometric films, surgically removed teeth and intraoral photographs in 22 patients (10 men, 12 women), aged 3.5 to 34 years. Formation of primary teeth was normal, whereas all patients but one had supernumerary permanent teeth. Frequency of supernumerary teeth ranged from 22% in the maxillary incisor region to 5% in the molar regions. Anterior to the molar region supernumerary teeth were formed lingually and occlusally to the normal teeth. Maturation of the primary dentition was normal, while permanent teeth were delayed from 1 to 4 years. Supernumerary teeth were delayed about 4 years in relation to normal permanent teeth. Eruption of primary teeth was normal, whereas all patients had severe eruption problems of permanent teeth.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
