ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
Vascular anomalies are often associated with hypertrophy and asymmetry of soft tissues and bony structures. The aim of this retrospective cross-sectional radiographic study was to evaluate dental maturation and development in patients with facial vascular anomalies and congenital infiltrating lipomatosis.DESIGN:
A sample of 342 patients with different vascular anomalies or congenital infiltrating lipomatosis involving the head and neck area was narrowed down to 31 patients with dental panoramic radiographs taken in the mixed dentition. A control group of 172 age-matched healthy subjects was used. Individual permanent teeth were given a maturation score from 1 to 12 and alveolar eruption stage according to Haavikko et al. 1970. The laterality of the anomaly was noted if applicable. Differences in dental development between affected and unaffected sides were recorded.RESULTS:
The study data included both syndromic and non-syndromic vascular anomalies as well as congenital infiltrating lipomatosis and segmental odontomaxillary dysplasia. Teeth on the side of the anomaly were more developed and the eruption of teeth was accelerated with canines, premolars and second molars being most affected. Interestingly all the patients with Sturge-Weber syndrome (n = 4) and infiltrating lipomatosis (n = 2) showed accelerated dental maturation of multiple permanent teeth on the side of the anomaly. Hypodontia, dental root resorption and macrodontia were also found.CONCLUSIONS:
Accelerated development and eruption of permanent teeth unilaterally in patients with vascular anomalies and congenital infiltrating lipomatosis may have a significant impact on the developing occlusion and should be thus followed by an orthodontist.
