Dental abnormalities
Dental abnormalities:
Dental abnormalities are craniofacial abnormalities of form, function, or position of
the teeth, bones, and tissues of the jaw and mouth.
Classification:
Dental abnormality can be classified based on 4 types.
(1) Size
(2) Number and Eruption
(3) Shape/Form
(4) Defects of Enamel and Dentin

(1) Size :
According to size Dental abnormality can be divided into 2 types.
1. Microdontia
2. Macrodontia
1. Microdontia :
Microdontia can be classified into 3 types.
(I) True Generalized Microdontia :
➨ All teeth are smaller than normal.
➨ Occur in some cases of pituitary dawrfism.
➨ Exceedingly rare.
➨ Teeth are well formed.
(II) Relative Generalized Microdontia :
➨ Normal or slightly smaller than normal teeth.
➨ Are present in jaws that are somewhat larger than normal.
![Page 3: Dental abnormalities with details](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022073118/559ef6cd1a28abd1768b45ec/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
(III) Focal or Localized Microdontia :
➨ Common condition.
➨ Affects most often maxillary lateral incisior + 3rd molar.
➨ These 2 teeth are most often congenitally missing.
2. Macrodontia :
Macrodontia can be classified into 3 types.
(I) True Generalized Macrodontia :
➨ All teeth are larger than normal.
➨ Associated with pituitary gigantism.
➨ Exceedingly rare.
![Page 4: Dental abnormalities with details](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022073118/559ef6cd1a28abd1768b45ec/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
(II) Relative Generalized Macrodontia :
➨ Normal or slightly larger than normal teeth in small jaws.
➨ Results in crowding of teeth.
➨ Insufficient arch space.
(III) Focal or Localized Macrodontia :
➨ Uncommon condition.
➨ Unknown etiology.
➨ Usually seen with mandibular 3rd molars.

(2) Number and Eruption :
According to number & eruption Dental abnormality can be divided into 3 types.
1. Supernumerary
2. Anodontia
3. Impaction
1. Supernumerary :
➨ Results from continued proliferation of permanent or primary dental lamina to form
third tooth germ.
➨ Teeth may have:
• normal morphology
• rudimentary
• miniature
➨ More often in permanent dentition than primary dentition.
➨ More in the maxilla than in mandible.
➨ may be impacted erupted or impacted.
➨ because of additional tooth bulk, it causes:
• malposition of adjacent teeth
• prevent their eruption
➨ characteristically found in cleidocranial dysostosis.
![Page 6: Dental abnormalities with details](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022073118/559ef6cd1a28abd1768b45ec/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Supernumerary can be divided into few groups. They are :
i. Mesiodens
ii. Fourth molar
• Maxillary Paramolar
• Distomolar or Distodens
iii. Mandibular Premolar
iv. Maxillary lateral incisors
(I) Mesiodens :
➨ Most common supernumerary tooth.
➨ Tooth situated between maxillary central incisors
• singly
• paired
• erupted or impacted
• inverted
➨ Small tooth.
➨ Cone-shaped crown.
➨ Short root.
(II) Fourth molar :
➨ 2nd most common situated distal to 3rd molar.
➨ Small rudimentary tooth,but may be of normal size.
➨ Mandibular 4th molar also is seen occasionally, but less common than maxillary
molar.
![Page 7: Dental abnormalities with details](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022073118/559ef6cd1a28abd1768b45ec/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
It can be 2 types. They are :
• Maxillary Paramolar
• Distomolar or Distodens
Paramolar :
➨ Small + rudimentary.
➨ Situated bucally or lingually to one of the maxillary molars.
➨ Interproximally between 1st+ 2nd or 2nd + 3rd maxillary molars.
Distomolar or Distodens :
➨ Molar located distal to molar.
2. Anodontia :
➨ Lack of tooth development.
➨ Absence of teeth.
![Page 8: Dental abnormalities with details](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022073118/559ef6cd1a28abd1768b45ec/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Anodontia can be divided into 4 Types. They are :
i. Complete Anodontia
ii. Partial Anodontia
• Hypodontia
• Oligodontia
iii. Pseudoanodontia
iv. False Anodontia
(I) Complete Anodontia :
➨ When all teeth are missing.
➨ Rare.
➨ Often associated with a syndrome known as hereditary ectodermal dysplasia.
(II) Hypodontia :
➨ Lack of development of one or more teeth.
![Page 9: Dental abnormalities with details](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022073118/559ef6cd1a28abd1768b45ec/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
(II) Oligodontia :
➨ Lack of development of six or more teeth
(III) Pseudoanodontia :
➨ When teeth are absent clinically because of impaction or delayed eruption.
(iv) False Anodontia :
➨ When teeth have been exfoliated or extracted.

3. Impaction :
➨ Most often affects the mandibular 3rd molars + maxillary canines.
➨ Less commonly:
• premolars
• mandibular canines
• second molars
➨ Occurs due to obstruction from crowding.
➨ From some other physical barrier.
➨ Occasionally, may be due to an abnormal eruption path, presumably because of
unusual orientation of tooth germ .
![Page 11: Dental abnormalities with details](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022073118/559ef6cd1a28abd1768b45ec/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
(3) Shape/Form :
According to shape/Form Dental abnormality can be divided into 2 types.They are :
1. Crown
2. Root
Crown can be divided into many types. They are :
★ Fusion
★ Gemination
★ Taurodontism
★ Talon’s Cusp
★ Leong’s Cusp
★ Dens Invaginatus
★ Peg-shaped Lateral
★ Hutchinson Incisor
★ Mulberry Molar
(I) Fusion :
➨ Joining of 2 developing tooth germs.
➨ Resulting in a single large tooth structure.
➨ May involve entire length of teeth.
➨ Or may involve roots only, in which case cementum + dentin are SHARED.
![Page 12: Dental abnormalities with details](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022073118/559ef6cd1a28abd1768b45ec/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
(II) Gemination :
➨ Fusion of 2 teeth from a single enamel organ.
➨ Partial cleavage.
➨ Appearance of 2 crowns that share same root canal.
➨ Trauma has been suggested as possible cause, the cause is still unknown.
Root can be divided into many types. They are :
★ Concresence
★ Enamel Pearl
★ Dilaceration
★ Flexion
★ Ankylosis
(I) Concresence :
➨ 2 fully formed teeth.
➨ Joined along the root surfaces by cementum.
➨ Noted more frequently in posterior and maxillary regions.
➨ Often involves a 2nd molar tooth in which its roots closely approximate the adjacent
impacted 3rd molar.
➨ May occur before or after the teeth have erupted.
➨ Usually involves only 2 teeth.
![Page 13: Dental abnormalities with details](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022073118/559ef6cd1a28abd1768b45ec/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
(III) Enamel Pearl :
➨ Droplets of ectopic enamel.
➨ Or so called enamel pearls.
➨ May occasionally be found on roots of teeth.
➨ Uncommon, minor abnormalities, which are formed on normal teeth.
➨ Occur most commonly in bifurcation or trifurcation of teeth.
➨ May occur on single-rooted premolar as well.
➨ Maxillary molars are commonly affected than mandibular molars.
➨ Consist of only a nodule of enamel attached to dentin.
➨ May have a core of dentin containing pulp horn.
➨ May be detected on radiographic examination.
![Page 14: Dental abnormalities with details](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022073118/559ef6cd1a28abd1768b45ec/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
(4) Defects of Enamel and Dentin :
According to enamel & dentin Dental abnormality can be divided into 4 types.
1. Amelogenesis Imperfecta
2. Dentinogenesis Imperfecta
3. Dentinal Dysplasia
4. Odontodysplasia
1. Amelogenesis Imperfecta :
It is also known as:
Hereditary Enamel Dysplasia
Hereditary Brown Enamel
Hereditary Brow Opalescent Teeth
➨ Disturbance in the ectodermal layers of developing teeth.
➨ Hereditary abnormality.
➨ Affect either the primary or the permanent dentition.
➨ Soft enamel starts to fracture.
➨ Dark brown color.
➨ Enamel has the same radiopacity as the dentin, and the two cannot be
differentiated on a radiograph.
![Page 15: Dental abnormalities with details](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022073118/559ef6cd1a28abd1768b45ec/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
It can be classified based on pattern of inheritance:
★ hypoplasia
★ hypomaturation
★ hypocalcified
2. Dentinogenesis Imperfecta :
➨ A hereditary abnormality in the formation of dentin.
➨ Teeth varies from gray to brownish violet to yellowish brown color.
➨ Crown fractures easily because of abnormal DEJ.
➨ Pulp chambers and root canals may be partially or completely obliterated.
➨ Radiographically, the teeth exhibit thin, short roots.
It can be classified into 3 types. They are :
★ Type I
★ Type II
★ Type III
![Page 16: Dental abnormalities with details](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022073118/559ef6cd1a28abd1768b45ec/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
3. Dentinal Dysplasia :
➨ Also known as “Rootless Teeth”.
➨ Rare disturbance of dentin formation.
➨ Normal enamel.
➨ A typical dentin formation.
➨ Abnormal pulpal morphology.
➨ Hereditary disease.
It can be classified into 2 types. They are :
★ Type I (Radicular Type)
★ Type II (Coronal Type)
type I or radicular type :
(also known as rootless teeth)
● Affects primarily the root portion.
● On a radiograph, short conical roots.
● Periapical lesions without any obvious cause.
● Premature tooth loss may occur because of short roots.
type II or coronal type :
(also known as coronal dysplasia)
•affects primarily the pulp chambers
•frequently contain pulp stones

4. Odontodysplasia :
It is also known as:
★ Odontogenic Dysplasia
★ Odontogenesis Imperfecta
★ Ghost Teeth
➨ One or several teeth in a localized area are affected.
➨ Maxillary teeth are involved more frequently than mandibular area.
➨ Etiology is unknown.
➨ Teeth affected may exhibit a delay or total failure in eruption.
➨ Shape is altered, irregular in appearance.

Other Causes :
Except those mentioned abnormality dental abnormality can be caused due to
different environmental reasons. It could be :
a. Tetracycline
b. Fluorosis
Also in some cases humans are also responsible for dental abnormalities. Dental
abnormality might be caused by:
a. Coffee, tea, and red wine
b. Scurvy (vit.c def)
TREATMENT : Abrasion :
• Restorative dental techniques • Correction of habits, occlusal force discrepancies
Amelogenesis Imperfecta :
• Full-crown restorations for esthetics • Regular periodic examinations
• Meticulous oral hygiene, calculus removal, and oral rinses
• Use of Fluoride applications and desensitizing agents • Genetic counseling
Attrition :
• Usually does not require specific management • Elective restoration of occlusal/incisal surfaces to prevent over-closure of jaws in
function
Bulimia :
Combined aggressive medical management, psychotherapy, behavioral management,
food intake management, and nutritional counseling
![Page 19: Dental abnormalities with details](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022073118/559ef6cd1a28abd1768b45ec/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Dentinal Dysplasia :
• Teeth usually unsalvageable (type I) • Regular periodic examinations
• Prosthetic replacement including dentures, overdentures, partial dentures or dental implants
• For esthetics restorations- discolored teeth can be improved with resin bonding or
veneering • Genetic counseling
• Endodontic therapy like negotiating around pulp stones and through whorls of tubular dentin
• Peri-apical curettage and retrograde amalgam seals in teeth with short roots
Dentinogenesis Imperfecta :
• Functional and esthetic restorations (full crowns) by different types of veneers and
by masking the opalescent blue-gray discoloration of the anterior teeth • Meticulous oral hygiene, calculus removal, and oral rinses
• Use of Fluoride applications and desensitizing agents
• Genetic counseling • Apical surgery may be required to maintain the abscessed teeth
Erosion :
• Identification and elimination of cause • Treatment of underlying etiology
• Dental restorative treatment subsequent to complete functional evaluation, vertical
dimension, and esthetics
Fluorosis: Chronic Endemic :
• Restorative dental treatment • Cosmetic bleaching
Fusion :
• If esthetics demand, removal and replacement
Natal Teeth :
• If mobile, extraction
• Possible retention for functional, esthetic reasons
