Abstract

Developmental anomalies of the tooth are routinely encountered by dentists and may present with esthetic and or functional problems. The reported literature has shown a wide variation in the prevalence of these conditions across the globe. Developmental dental disturbances are striking aberrations from the normal size, number, colour, contour and degree of development of teeth. Knowledge of common dental anomalies is essential because these disturbances of teeth contribute to dental problems encountered in regular practice. The aim of this present study is to assess the prevalence of developmental dental anomalies in size, shape, number and structure of the teeth in patients.
