CASE REPORT
Retreatment of a Class II Patient with Short-Root Anomaly
Volume 49 : Number 10 : Page 0 : Oct 2015
Short-root anomaly is an idiopathic condition that can occasionally be associated with an autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance. It affects about 1.3% of the population and is more prevalent in women. Caused by incomplete root development rather than resorptive processes, it is usually confined to the upper incisors or premolars, but may sometimes affect the entire dentition, when it is known as generalized short-root anomaly. Short-root anomalies may be associated with systemic conditions such as dysplasia type 1, scleroderma, thalassemia, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, Aarskog syndrome, Down syndrome, or Rothmund-Thomson syndrome.
