Mutational analysis of MSX1 and PAX9 genes in Portuguese families with maxillary lateral incisor agenesis

The observation that certain patterns of tooth agenesis occur more frequently in individuals of the same family may suggest the existence of predisposing genetic factors. The aim of this study was to search for mutations in the PAX9 and MSX1 genes and to investigate their potential association with...
