Genetics

Unraveling Oral Health: The Genetic Tapestry in Dentistry

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Genetics in dentistry unveils a complex interplay between genetic factors and oral health, influencing various aspects of dental traits and predispositions to specific conditions. Hereditary factors contribute to tooth size, shape, and susceptibility to dental diseases, including periodontal issues and tooth decay. Conditions like cleft lip and palate have a genetic basis, impacting facial and oral structures. Genetic disorders such as amelogenesis imperfecta and dentinogenesis imperfecta affect enamel and dentin formation, necessitating genetic testing for diagnosis and management. Salivary composition variations, influenced by genetic markers, impact oral health conditions like dry mouth or excessive saliva production. Genetic influences extend to orthodontic traits, affecting malocclusions and guiding orthodontic treatment plans. Advanced genetic research enables targeted genetic testing, aiding in risk assessment and personalized treatment plans. Inherited metabolic disorders, albeit rare, can impact tooth development and structure. Understanding genetic predispositions to periodontal diseases informs tailored preventive strategies and early interventions.
