Study Reveals Association Between Dental Agenesis and Facial Morphology in French Population

Posted: December 8, 2024
A cross-sectional study in France investigated the correlation between dental agenesis and facial morphology in 259 orthodontic patients aged 12-18 years. The study found that specific cephalometric parameters such as FMA, facial axis, SNB, and ANS-Xi-Pm were associated with tooth agenesis. Transverse maxillary constriction, facial divergence, and chin symphysis projection were linked to agenesis occurrence. These findings provide valuable insights for dental professionals in understanding the relationship between oral and facial structures in the French population.
