Primary and permanent dentition are diverse in their size, shape, mould and number, along with their structural composition. Such variations are due to genetic involvement which may be expressed due to local environmental or systemic factors, or due to environmental influence, or likely an interplay of both genetic and environmental involvement.
Developmental tooth disorder are either inherited or acquired. Development of primary dentition commences around 6 weeks in utero, while development of the permanent dentition lasts up till 18 - 24 years old.[1] Environmental influences may hence play a role in the progress of the developing dentition. Comprehensive patient assessment is necessary for diagnosing dental anomalies, which include the patient's medical, dental, family, social history, clinical examination and special investigations such as radiographic examination.
