TORO SANCHEZ, Lizbeth Del et al. Non syndromic Oligodontia: a case report. AMC [online]. 2017, vol.21, n.5, pp.665-6571. ISSN 1025-0255.

Background: dental anomalies of number and shape can be in both temporary and permanent dentition. Evidence of this condition is very limited in literature and the etiology is controversial. Objective: to describe an atypical clinical case of oligodontia with no association of systemic condition or syndromes. Clinical case: a twelve-year-old female patient who presented a general lack of permanent teeth when she was examined. Her father also has missing teeth, which had not been previously removed; therefore it is a congenital case. The radiological examination showed the presence of six deciduous teeth and only six permanent. Conclusions: evidence in individuals with rare dental disorders contributes to the establishment of various diagnostic tools and consequently treatment needs are defined.

Keywords : ANODONTIA [diagnostic imaging]; DENTITION, PERMANENT; TOOTH ABNORMALITIES; CHILD; CASE REPORTS.
