Abstract

Dental anomalies are common disorders in clinical practice. Their frequency prevents the normal positioning of other teeth within the arch resulting in occlusal changes and facial growth. Early diagnosis and intervention reduce complications. The primary aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of dental anomalies according to frequency, distribution and gender status. As a secondary outcome, the study examined the correlation between dental anomalies and skeletal malocclusions in the sagittal direction.
Material and method: the study includes 100 patients of both sexes. Through intraoral clinical examination, orthopantomography analysis and study models, dental abnormalities were evaluated according to groups (number, size, shape, position and structure of teeth); gender and affected teeth in the maxilla and mandible. In lateral cephalometric, the skeletal ratio was analyzed in the posterior-anterior direction where the ANB angle was determined as class I malocclusion (from 2º to 4º), class II malocclusion (> 4º) and class III malocclusion (< 2º).
Conclusion: rotation and inclination were the most frequent 50 (50.0%) and the rarest were 5 (5.0%) concrescence and dens invaginatus 5 (5.0%). Of the patients, 51 (51.0%) had two dental anomalies, 24 (24.0%) had three dental anomalies, 14 (14.0%) had one dental anomaly. Hypodontia 5 (62.5%) and microdontia 4 (50.0%) were associated with skeletal class III, a statistically significant association was observed for p< 0.05.
