Genetics and Malocclusion: Inheritance and its pattern

By Oshin Pawar, Rigzing O. Lepcha, Srishti Aditi

The study of genes, from molecules to populations, is known as genetics. In dentistry, even within families, there are many variations in people's dentofacial traits. When we analyze a certain characteristic or condition in dentistry, we frequently find that it is the result of two main causes, genetic and environmental. The discussion will center on how genetics may have a role in common dental conditions such dental caries, periodontal disease, and malocclusion, the genetic abnormalities that occurred during the development of teeth.
