Unilateral odontodysplasia.

G Anneroth, G Ramström

    Swedish Dental Journal
    |January 1, 1980
    PubMed
    Summary

    Early trauma to the jaw caused severe dental malformations in permanent teeth. This case highlights how local injury can disrupt tooth development and mineralization.

    Area of Science:

    • Dentistry
    • Oral Surgery
    • Developmental Biology

    Background:

    • Dental anomalies can arise from various etiological factors.
    • Understanding the impact of early trauma on tooth development is crucial for diagnosis and treatment.

    Observation:

    • A case study details asymmetrical malformations in five permanent teeth of the right maxilla.
    • Roentgenological examination revealed defective mineralization of deciduous and permanent tooth germs.
    • An early osteitic process secondary to local trauma was implicated.

    Findings:

    • Mineralization disturbances were confirmed in permanent teeth (13, 14, 15, 16, 17).
    • Histopathological examination showed significant malformation with disturbed morpho- and histodifferentiation.
    • Endocrinological assessments ruled out systemic conditions like hypothyreosis or Turner's syndrome.

    Implications:

    • Early localized trauma can lead to complex dental malformations requiring multiple extractions.
    • This case underscores the importance of considering trauma history in diagnosing tooth development abnormalities.
    • Further research into the precise mechanisms linking trauma to mineralization defects is warranted.
