Prevalence and distribution of dental anomalies in pretreatment orthodontic Thai patients
Abstract The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence and distribution of dental anomalies, includingother pathologic fi ndings in the pre-treatment records of Thai orthodontic patients at the Faculty of
Dentistry, Khon Kaen University. Two observers retrospectively examined 570 panoramic radio-
graphs, study models and pre-orthodontic records. Dental anomalies were recorded using panoramic
radiographs and study models. The prevalence and distribution of the anomalies were assessed and
reported as descriptive statistics. Patients were between 12 and 40 years of age(mean 19.38+4.23).
Persons between 16 and 20 years of age comprised the most common age group (51.1%) requiring
for orthodontic treatment. The patient types included: class I (25.3%), II (27.4%), III (13.2%) and
superclass I (34.0%). Crowding and spacing were found in 89.6% and 73.2% of patients, respectively.
It was found that 38.6% of patients had at least one dental anomaly: hypodontia being the most
common (26.1%), followed by microdontia (13.7%), root shape abnormality (3.4%), hyperdontia (2.7%),
transposition (1.6%), macrodontia (1.4%) and fusion 0.7%. In conclusion, the developmental dental
anomalies found in Thai orthodontic patients were comparable with other research.

INTRODUCTION
Dental anomalies, and their influence onmalocclusions,have long been a concern to the dental profession.Ben-Bassat and Brin1 found that multiple congenitally-missing teeth affected the skeletal pattern. Endo et al.2 reported the association of hypodontia and craniofacial morphology in Japanese orthodontic patients. Uslu et al.3 found no statisticallysignificant correlations between having a dental anomaly and the type of malocclusion, except having an impacted tooth or a short blunt root. An increased prevalence of an occlusal deep bite was reported in palatally-displaced maxillary canine subjects.4 Whether the prevalence of dental anomaly causes any orthodontic problem has not, however, been fully understood. The difference in the prevalence of dental anomalies in orthodontic patients reported over the past 10 years of publications was very high. Altug-Atac and Erdem5 reported 5.46% of the orthodontic patients in a group of 3,043 had at least 1 developmental dental anomaly, while Thongudompornand Freer6 investigated 111 orthodontic patients and found that 74.8% had at least 1 dental anomaly.
The possible cause of the variance in these reports might be due to race, sample selection and size,
type of dental anomalies and malocclusion. Indeed, most of the publications reported the prevalence of
hypodontia in orthodontic patients more than any other type of dental anomaly and no type of malocclusion was reported.7-9 These informational gaps limit our understanding of dental anomalies in persons with
orthodontic problems. Our purpose8, therefore, was to investigate the prevalence and distribution of dental anomalies in panoramic radiographs of Thai orthodontic patients and evaluate whether the result was comparable with
other studies among orthodontic groups published over the last decade.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Pre-orthodontic study models and panoramic radiographs of 570 orthodontic patients were retrospectively evaluated. All of the patients had been seen at the Orthodontic Clinic, Faculty of Dentistry, Khon Kaen University, between 1999 and 2006. Detailed medical, dental and family histories were obtained for all subjects. The selection criteria follow: 1. No significant medical history, such as signifi cant trauma to the jaw bones. 2. No history of metabolic disorders or syndrome affecting bone metabolism and/or tooth formation. 3. No history of extraction or previous orthodontic treatment. 4. No cleft lip and/or palate, craniofacial anomalies and diagnosed syndromes. 5. Required good quality of study models with stable occlusion and good quality panoramic radiographs.
Demographic data Age, sex and type of malocclusion were recorded for each patient. Panoramic radiographs and study models were examined for dental anomalies and pathologic fi ndings, with agreement between an orthodontist and a radiologist. Descriptions of anomaliesused the criteria presented by Langland et al.10. The following dental anomalies were assessed: 1. Number abnormalities (hypodontia and hyperdontia); 2. Size abnormalities (macrodontia and
microdontia); 3. Shape abnormalities (fusion, gemination); 4. Location (transposition of tooth);
5. Other idings.Statistical analysis Descriptive analyses—using the Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS 9.0)—was used

to calculate the prevalence and distribution within the dental anomaly data. Percentages and means were also calculated.
RESULTS The sample group comprised 124 males (21.8%) and 446 females (78.2%). Age rangedbetween 12 and 40 years (mean, 19.38+ 4.23);the average for the male and female groups was18.1 and 19.0, respectively. Most of those seekingorthodontic treatment were between 12 and 25 years of age (94.3%), with the largest group being between 16-20 years of age (51.1%). The patients were grouped into: class I (25.3%), II (27.4%), III (13.2%) and superclass I (34.0%). Crowding and spacing problems were found in 89.6% and 73.2% of patients, respectively. It was found that 38.6% of patients had at least one dental anomaly. The prevalence and distribution of dental anomalies follow:
Hypodontia
Of the 570 subjects, 149 (26.1%) had 350 missing teeth. The prevalence and distribution of hypodontia is presented in Table 1. The most commonmissing tooth was the third molar (68.9%), followedby the lateral incisor (15.1%) and the second premolar(8.6%). Except for the third molar, the other missing teeth occurred in mandible (17.4%) more often than in the maxilla (13.7%) and were distributed fairly evenly between the right and the left side. Among the hypodontia group, the percentage of patients with one, two, three, four or fi ve congenitally missing teeth were 11.4, 6.5, 3.3, 3.0 and 0.7 respectively. The prevalence of six or more congenitally missing teeth was 1.4 % The highest number of congenitally missing teeth was 14 but in only one subject (0.2% of the total number of subjects)
Hyperdontia refers to one or more extra teeth. Mesiodens is the extra tooth in the maxillary midline.
Our study reports extra teeth, either supernumerary teeth or mesiodens, separately. A total of 15 subjects (2.6%) presented; 12 with supernumerary teeth and 9 with mesiodens (Table 2). Six subjects presented 1 supernumerary tooth and three with 2 extra teeth.
Nine mesiodens were found in 6 subjects. Three
subjects had 2 cone-shaped mesiodens. The ratio of upper to lower and anterior to posterior supernumerary teeth was 2 to 1 and 3 to 1 respectively.
Regarding shape, the extra tooth shape resembledthe adjacent permanent tooth, such as the incisor (2 cases), a cone shape (2 cases) or a canine
(5 cases) at the anterior sextant and the premolar(1 case) or the molar shape (2 cases) at the posterior sextant.

Macrodontia and microdontia – The occurrence of macrodontia was less common than microdontia. Eight subjects had macrodontia (1.4% of the total 570 cases), including 5 cases of 1 macrodontia, 2 cases of 2 macrodontia [#28 (the maxillary left third molar) & #48(the mandibulary right third molar) and #25 (the maxillary left second premolar) & #34 (the mandibulary left fi rst premolar)] and 1 case of 3 macrodontia [#15 (The maxillary right second premolar,#35 ( the mandibulary left second premolar & #45 the mandibulary right second premolar)]. Macrodontiadid not appear in the anterior sextant. The most common type of macrodontia presented at the third
molar (7 teeth), followed by the second premolar (4 teeth) and the fi rst premolar (1 tooth). There were 78 cases (13.7%, 120 teeth) of microdontia (Table 3). The most commonly affected teeth fairly equally represented the maxillary third molar (56 from the whole 120 teeth) and the maxillary lateral incisors (55). It is very common in the maxilla (96.7%) and very rare in the mandible (3.3%). The majority of patients presented one (40 cases) or two microdontias (35 cases). Two cases presented 3 microdontias and one case presented 4 microdontias.

Fusion – There were four cases (0.7%) of 7 fused teeth, one case of single fusion, three cases of double fusion. Except for one tooth of the maxillary second premolar, the remaining six teeth had fusion at the
mandible. Most fusion occurred among the lower
canine and lower premolar teeth. There was only one
case of fusion of a lower lateral incisor.
Gemination was not found in this study.

Transposition – Of the 9 transposition cases (1.6%), fi ve were located between the lateral incisor and the adjacent canine, two between the canine and the fi rst premolar and two between the fi rst and second premolar.The abnormality occurred two times in the maxilla to the mandible (6/3). There was no transposition at all of the central incisor and molars.
Other fi ndings
Among the 570 records, other radiographic fi ndings were present (Table 4). Idiopathic osteosclerosis represented 10% of the fi ndings followed by bifi d root (1.8%), trifi d root (0.2%), three root of the fi rst mandibular molar (0.2%), and odontoma (0.7%). Idiopathic osteosclerosis occurred only in the mandible. Of the 14 bifi d roots, 13 showed at the
fi rst mandibular premolars and one at the second mandibular premolar. Six cases presented single bifi d root and four cases showed two bifi d roots. One trifi d of the fi rst mandibular premolars was found. Of the 4 odontoma cases, three were in the maxilla and one in the mandible. Hypercementosis was found in 7 cases (1.2%, 9 teeth); one at the canine and the fi rst molar and seven at the premolar teeth. No incisal tooth presented hypercementosis. Only one subject showed three hypercementosis (#15, #34, #35). Dental anomalies were ranked according to prevalence (Table 5). Missing teeth and microdontia occurred more often than extra teeth and macrodontia. Root abnormalities were more common than crown abnormalities.

DISCUSSION
Although the prevalence and distribution of dental anomalies has been studied in various groups of orthodontic patients, the discrepancies in the variousresults have been attributed to racial differences, variable sampling techniques and different diagnostic criteria including the orthodontic problem selected.
Hypodontia
Hypodontia is a common dental anomaly found in orthodontic patients. Multiple missing teeth not only cause malocclusion but also make orthodontic treatmentdiffi cult due to poor occlusal support and stability. Some missing teeth have been reported in association with at least one other dental anomaly9,11,12 and may complicate orthodontic problems. The prevalence of hypodontia in orthodontic patients has been reported differently. Excluding the third molar, hypodontia ranges from 2.6% in Turkey5, to 5.5% in Mexico13, 6.3% in Brazil9, 8.5% in Japan7, 11.1% in Korea14, 14.7% in Hungary8, to 26.4% in Thais (this study). Altug-Atac and Erdem 5, Uslu et al.3 and our study found tooth agenesiswas the most prevalent dental anomaly among
orthodontic patients. The most common missing tooth in orthodontic
patients varies among the studied groups. Endo et al. 7
reported the most commonly affected tooth was in the mandibular second premolar. The maxillary lateral
incisor was the most frequent in many studies.3, 5, 9, 13 -15
In our study, the most commonly missing tooth, excluding the third molar, was the mandibular lateral
incisor (8.3%), followed by the maxillary lateral incisor (6.9%) and the mandibular second premolar (5.7%). There are reported differences in symmetrical
hypodontia: some have predominant symmetry7, 13
while in some unilateral dental agenesis is more common than bilateral agenesis.16
Hyperdontia
Hyperdontia is detected by chance either during intraoral examination or on radiographs. In case of malocclusion, the orthodontist plays a key role in the diagnosis and therapy through a comprehensive examination. The treatment decision is based on the individual case and may require interdisciplinary cooperation. The prevalence of supernumerary teeth is usually lower than that of tooth agenesis.17 The prevalence of supernumerary teeth in orthodontic patients ranges between 0.3%-1.37% 3,17,18, while our study documented 1.6%. The difference in race signifi cantly affects the frequency of hyperdontia.19
The most common site of supernumerary teeth is in the maxillary anterior region.3, 8
Mesiodens may cause delay or ectopic eruption of the permanent incisor or further alter occlusion and appearance. Early diagnosis is therefore needed for appropriate treatment, thereby reducing the invasiveness of surgery, orthodontic treatment and possible complications.20 Most of the studies reported mesiodens in terms of supernumerary teeth. The prevalence of mesiodens in orthodontic patients ranged between 0.3-1.8 %5, 6, which is not signifi cantly different from the general population
(0.15-1.9%).20 Our study found mesiodens in 1.1% of orthodontic patients. Size abnormalities (macrodontia and microdontia) Dental morphology is only one of several factors that may be involved in the etiology of dental crowding
or spacing. Macrodontia is very much less common than microdontia.5 Compared with other studies3, 5, 6,the percentage of macrodontia and microdontia in our
study was the highest (1.4% and13.7%, respec-tively). The most common microdontia was of the maxillary lateral incisor.5, 6 Maxillary and mandibular
ว.ทันต.ขอนแกน, ปที่ 13 ฉบับที่ 2 ก.ค.-ธ.ค. 255398
fi rst and second molars were the only teeth not affected by macrodontia or microdontia (Table 3).
Shape abnormalities (fusion, gemination) Fusion requires management for esthetic reasons. Fusion and gemination in the general population are reportedly very low (0.19% and 0.22%, respectively)and extremely limited in orthodontic reports. Altug-Atac and Erdem5 reported the frequency of fusion and gemination was 0.23% and 0.07%, respectively. In our study, fusion occurred in only 0.7% and no gemination was found. In our study, fusion, macrodontia and gemination were not found in the maxillary fi rst premolar, the maxillary and mandibular fi rst and second molars, or the lower central incisor.
Location abnormalities (transposition) Teeth transposition is a rare eruption anomalythat involves the permanent dentition (incidence 0.3-0.4%).21,22 Transposition are more frequently seen in the maxilla23, as in our study, and affecting (in descending order) the canines and fi rst premolars,the canines and lateral incisors and the lateral and central incisors.23,24 Our study found the most frequently transposed teeth were the maxillary canine-lateral incisors. Transposition may occur with
other anomalies, such as aplasia, peg-shaped lateral incisor and deciduous teeth retention.21 Diagnosis could be made at the radiological level: the earlier the diagnosis, the less risks related to orthodontic treatment.
Other fi ndings Except for idiopathic osteosclerosis, the number
of root shape, odontoma and hypercementosis occurred at a very low rate in our study and was hardly seen in other reports. The correlation between dental anomalies and
orthodontic problems has not been widely studied. Chung et al.14 reported the association of a congenitallymissing third molar and skeletal class III malocclusion.Endo et al.2 evaluated the effect of hypodontia to craniofacial morphology. Whereas Bauer at al.25 found no statistically relevant correlation between the location of missing teeth and the craniofacial growth pattern. The difference in these results refl ects the need for further study on both the prevalence, type of dental anomaly, location of abnormalities and type of orthodontic problems, in order to better understand whether there is a correlation between dental anomaly and orthodontic problems.
CONCLUSION
Prevalence and distribution of some dental anomaliesin Thai orthodontic patients differed from other studies.Orthodontists should concern about the difference in dental anomalies in various group of patients. Careful diagnosis simplify treatment plan and reduce complications.
