Hypodontia (Missing Teeth): Causes & Treatment
Hypodontia is a congenital condition where one or more teeth fail to develop, most commonly affecting the second premolars or upper lateral incisors. It can involve:
- Missing a few teeth (hypodontia)
- Six or more teeth missing (oligodontia)
- Complete absence of teeth (anodontia)
Causes of Hypodontia:
- Genetic factors or inherited traits
- Developmental disorders or syndromes (e.g., ectodermal dysplasia)
- Environmental factors affecting early tooth development
Treatment Options for Hypodontia:
- Orthodontic Treatment: To close or maintain gaps
- Dental Bridges: To fill gaps using neighboring teeth
- Removable Partial Dentures: Especially for multiple missing teeth
- Dental Implants: For permanent, natural-looking tooth replacement
