Abstract


Disturbances during the period of tooth development may result in alteration the size, shape, number or morphology of teeth and are commonly
encountered by dental professionals resulting in low self esteem in the conscious patients and or functional problems. Available literature has

various developmental disturbances of tooth in a sample of Indian children. Methods- A total of 2500 children in the age group of 6 to 13 years
visiting the OPD of pedodontics and preventive dentistry of Mithila Minority Dental College & Hospital, Darbhanga, Bihar were screened
clinically for the prevalence of developmental disturbances of teeth, the data was tabulated and analysed statistically. Results- Prevalence of
developmental disturbances was 5.02 %. in the study population and Enalmel hypoplasia, hypodontia were the most frequently encountered
anomalies. Conclusion- Developmental disturbances of the teeth are common, an early detection and intervention may prevent future
complications and requirement of more complex multidisciplinary treatment in the future.
