Novel PAX9 gene polymorphisms and mutations and susceptibility to tooth agenesis in the Czech population.

OBJECTIVES: Tooth agenesis is one of the most common developmental anomalies in humans. Genetic and environmental factors may be of etiological importance in this condition. Among genes involved in tooth morphogenesis, mutations in PAX9, MSX1, AXIN2, WNT10a, and EDA genes have been associated with tooth agenesis. The aim of our study wa.....
