Teeth that are tiny, discolored, pitted, or grooved may be the outcome. The teeth may be more vulnerable to breakage and decay if the enamel is weak.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Anodontia<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The total absence of teeth is known as anodontia. It may manifest alone or as a component of a hereditary condition. Chewing, speaking, and facial attractiveness are all severely impacted by this illness, which frequently calls for dental prostheses or implants for both functional and esthetic repair.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Hypodontia<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hypodontia is the term for a condition in which one to six teeth, excluding the wisdom teeth (third molars), are partially absent. This disorder may result in functional problems that call for orthodontic treatment, gaps in the dental arch, and misalignment of the remaining teeth.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><strong>Oligodontia<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With the exception of the third molars, ligodontia is a more severe type of tooth agenesis in which more than six teeth are absent. It may result in severe difficulties with speaking, chewing, and facial appearance, requiring extensive dental care and maybe prosthodontic treatments.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><strong>Cleidocranial dysplasia<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The development of bones, notably the skull and collarbones, is impacted by this genetic condition. It frequently causes teeth to erupt later than expected, leaving some missing and some malformed. To cure dental problems brought on by cleidocranial dysplasia, patients may need orthodontic therapy, oral surgery, and other procedures.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio is-horizontal is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-7d812b4c wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color has-background wp-element-button\" style=\"border-radius: 2px; color: #fffffa; background-color: #ba0c49;\" href=\"tel:+919820012621\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Call Now<\/a><\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-button is-style-outline is-style-outline--2\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color wp-element-button\" style=\"border-radius: 2px; color: #ba0c49;\" href=\"https:\/\/royalimplant.com\/reach-us\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Book My Appointment <\/a><\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Types of Genetic Oral and Dental Abnormalities<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\r\n<li>The condition known as hyperdontia is defined by the existence of more teeth than is typical. Supernumerary teeth are extra teeth that can grow in different parts of the mouth and may not erupt properly, causing crowding, misalignment, and other dental problems.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li>Dentin, the hard tissue that lies beneath the enamel of teeth, is affected in its development by a genetic condition called dentinogenesis imperfecta. Teeth affected by this illness may be stained, transparent, and brittle. People who have dentinogenesis imperfecta may be sensitive to their teeth and may need dental procedures like bonding or crowns to make their teeth look and feel better.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li>Generic gingival fibromatosis is an uncommon hereditary condition characterized by an excessive proliferation of gingiva, or gum tissue. An expanded or &#8220;bulky&#8221; appearance of the gums due to extra gum tissue can have an impact on oral hygiene, chewing, and speaking. To decrease the extra gum tissue and restore the natural gum contour, treatment usually entails surgery.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\">\r\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"900\" class=\"wp-image-3855\" style=\"width: 395px; height: 395px;\" src=\"https:\/\/royalimplant.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/aug-25-2-900x900.jpg\" alt=\"dental health tooth\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Seeking Treatment<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can be confident that the <a href=\"https:\/\/royalimplant.com\/blogs\/cosmognathic-surgery-improves-smiles\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">dental care<\/a> you receive at <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/chiragchamria.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Royal Dental Clinics<\/a><\/strong> is thorough and individualized.
