Presentation
Population studies on the prevalence of hypodontia suggest that majority (more than 80%) will present with one or two congenitally missing teeth and only less than 1% will present with six or more missing teeth [ 10 ]. [omicsonline.org]
Individuals with this condition present with oligodontia (defined as congenital agenesis of six or more permanent teeth) in childhood followed by an increased risk of colorectal cancer in adulthood. [invitae.com]
A highly arched or cleft palate may be present and some individuals have a conductive hearing loss. The teeth are small and eruption may be delayed. Cognitive deficits may be present and mental retardation has been reported. [disorders.eyes.arizona.edu]
