Dental anomalies encountered during regular orthodontic treatment in Indore, Madhya Pradesh: A Research Article
Abstract
Background: In routine treatment procedures, an orthodontist encounters various dental anomalies in the oral cavity of the patients. These anomalies mainly affect the occlusion as well as the length of the arch of the jaw mainly in the anterior region. Therefore, it is important to know these anomalies which helps in proper orthodontic diagnosis and treatment plan
Materials and Methods: The present study included a total of 887 patients, out of which 427 patients are male and 460 patients are female. The orthopantomogram radiograph was analyzed. For checking the malocclusion,the one trained examiner was there for assessing the molar relationship (according to the angle’s definition)
Results: In the present study, we have observed dental anomalies like Impaction, Hyperdontia, Dilaceration, Dens Evaginatus, Dens Invaginatus,Taurodontism,Transposition,Gemination and Fusion occurs most commonly in male. While other anomalies like Hypodontia, Microdontia,Macrodontia,Peg-shaped lateral incisor,and Concrescence occur most commonly in females
Conclusion: In the present study, the prevalence of dental anomalies was 25.9%. The most common dental anomaly seen is Impaction
