Objective. The aim of this cross-sectional study was to investigate the prevalence of dental anomalies that could be a cause of malocclusion in the western region of Saudi Arabia. Materials and Methods. A retrospective study of 878 digital orthopantomograms (OPGs) taken of patients, age ranging between 12 and 30 years, who presented to treatment at the Faculty of Dentistry, King Abdulaziz University, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia between 2002 and 2011. The OPGs and dental records were reviewed for congenitally missing teeth, supernumerary teeth, impactions, ectopic eruption, transposition, germination, fusion, dilacerations, taurodontism, dens in dent, and any other unusual conditions that can be assessed with OPG. Results. The prevalence of patient that exhibited at least one dental anomaly was 396 (45.1%) patients. The prevalence of congenitally missing teeth was 226 (25.7%), impacted teeth 186 (21.1%), dilacerated teeth 10 (1.1%), supernumerary teeth 3 (0.3%), odontoma 1 (0.1%), and taurodontism was also 1 case (0.1%) of the total radiographs reviewed. Conclusions. Congenitally missing teeth were found to be the most prevalent anomaly (25.7%), and the second frequent anomaly was impacted teeth (21.1%), whereas root dilacerations, supernumerary teeth, and taurodontism were the least frequent anomalies (1.1%, 0.3% and 0.1%, resp.).
目的。本横断面研究的目的是调查沙特阿拉伯西部地区可能导致错牙合畸形的牙齿异常的患病率。材料与方法。对2002年至2011年间在沙特阿拉伯吉达阿卜杜勒阿齐兹国王大学牙科学院接受治疗的878例年龄在12至30岁之间患者的数字化口腔全景片(OPG)进行回顾性研究。对OPG和牙科记录进行审查,以查找先天性缺牙、多生牙、阻生牙、异位萌出、牙位倒错、双生牙、融合牙、牙根弯曲、牛牙症、牙中牙以及任何其他可用OPG评估的异常情况。结果。至少表现出一种牙齿异常的患者患病率为396例(45.1%)。先天性缺牙的患病率为226例(25.7%),阻生牙186例(21.1%),牙根弯曲的牙齿10例(1.1%),多生牙3例(0.3%),牙瘤1例(0.1%),在所审查的全部X光片中,牛牙症也为1例(0.1%)。结论。发现先天性缺牙是最常见的异常情况(25.7%),第二常见的异常是阻生牙(21.1%),而牙根弯曲、多生牙和牛牙症是最不常见的异常情况(分别为1.1%、0.3%和0.1%)。
