Abstract excerpt
Hypodontia is one of the most common anomalies of human dentition. Recent genetic studies provide information on a number of genes related to both syndromic and non-syndromic forms of hypodontia. Fifty putative single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 20 genes that play important roles in tooth development were selected, and a case-control study was conducted in 273 subjects with hypodontia (cases) and 200...
