Agenesia de segundos pré-molares: associação com outras agenesias

Abstract

A agenésia dentária é uma patologia caracterizada pela ausência de um ou mais dentes, e está presente em cerca de 3 a 10% da população atual. A falta de dentes pode ter repercussões a nível estético e funcional. Esta patologia divide-se em três grupos: hipodontia (ausência de 1 a 5 dentes), oligodontia (ausência de mais de 6 dentes) e anodontia (ausência total de dentes). O número de dentes ausentes determina a severidade do problema. A sua origem deriva de várias mutações genéticas, nomeadamente dos genes MSX1, AXIN2e PAX9. O dente que mais frequentemente se apresenta congenitamente ausente é o terceiro molar, apesar de não ser considerado em todos os estudos. Assim, alguma literatura considera os incisivos laterais superiores e os segundos pré-molares inferiores como sendo os dentes mais frequentemente ausentes. Os casos mais comuns de hipodontia são a agenésia única ou de dois dentes bilateralmente. Existem registos na literatura que evidenciam a associação da agenésia dos segundos pré-molares inferiores com a agenésia de outros pré-molares e/ou com a agenésia de incisivos laterais superiores, em casos de ausências múltiplas. O diagnóstico desta patologia deve ser precoce e detalhado, através da observação clínica e de exames radiográficos, que permitam a uma equipa multidisciplinar a elaboração de um plano de tratamento completo que se adapte ao paciente e às suas condições socioeconómicas.

Dental agenesis is a pathology characterized by the absence of one or more teeth, being present in about 3 to 10 % of the population. The lack of teeth might potentially lead to aesthetic and functional repercussions. This pathology is divided into three groups: hypodontia (absence of 1 to 5 teeth), oligodontia (absence of more than 6 teeth) and anodontia (total absence of teeth). The number of teeth missing will define the severity of the problem. The origin of this pathology is related to genes mutations. The genes involved are MSX1, AXIN2e and PAX9. Although the most commonly congenitally absent tooth is the third molar, it is not considered in all studies. Thus, the literature considers the upper lateral incisors and the lower second premolars as the most frequently absent teeth. The most common cases of hypodontia are single-tooth or two teeth bilateral agenesis. Scientific evidence unveils the association of agenesis between the second lower premolars and agenesis of other premolars and/or agenesis of upper lateral incisors, in cases of multiple absences. The diagnosis should be early and detailed, through clinical observation and radiographic examinations, which allows a multidisciplinary team to elaborate a complete treatment plan that adapts to the patient and their socioeconomic conditions.
