Isolated hypodontia is the most common human malformation. It is caused by heterozygous variants in various genes, with heterozygous WNT10A variants being the most common cause. WNT10A and WNT10B are paralogs that likely evolved from a common ancestral gene after its duplication. Recently, an association of WNT10B variants with oligodontia (severe tooth agenesis) has been reported. We performed mutational...
