Abstract:
The term ogee is proposed to describe dome or onion-shaped incisor roots as presented in a family study. A case of ogee permanent upper incisor teeth associated with microdontia, oligodontia, and tooth mobility is described. Forty-seven members of the proband's family were examined. The dental abnormalities were found to be of an autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance.
