Abstract(s)
A agenesia dentária é uma das anomalias mais comuns da dentição humana, afectando 20%
da população mundial, já a agenesia dos incisivos laterais superiores afecta 2% conforme a
população estudada. Pouco se sabe sobre a etiologia, acredita-se que é multifactorial, podendo
ocorrer devido a factores locais, genéticos e sistémicos. A ausência do incisivo lateral
superior cria em pacientes jovens um problema estético e funcional representando um grande
desafio para os médicos dentistas. Definir o melhor tratamento para a agenesia dos incisivos
laterais superiores requer um exame clínico/radiográfico detalhado e um planeamento
cuidadoso. As opções de tratamento na maioria dos casos são multidisciplinares podendo
optar-se pelo fechamento dos espaços com mesialização dos caninos ou a abertura dos
espaços através de tratamento ortodôntico, seguido pela reabilitação protética. O objetivo
deste estudo foi descrever a etiologia, prevalência e as modalidades terapêuticas para o
tratamento da agenesia de incisivos laterais superiores.
Dental agenesis is one of the most common anomalies of human dentition, affecting 20% of the world population and 2% for maxillary lateral incisors, varying according to population. Little is known about the etiology, but it is believed to be multifactorial and may occur due to local, genetic, systemic factors. The absence of the upper lateral incisor creates in young patients an aesthetic and functional problem posing a great challenge for dentists. Defining the best treatment for upper lateral incisors agenesis requires detailed clinical / radiographic examination and careful planning. The treatment options in most cases are multidisciplinary, being able to choose to close the spaces with mesialization of the canines or the opening of spaces through orthodontic treatment, followed by prosthetic rehabilitation. The objective of this study was to describe the etiology, prevalence and therapeutic modalities for the treatment of dental agenesis of upper lateral incisors.
