Comparison of the dental anomalies found in maxillary canine-first premolar transposition cases with those in palatally displaced canine cases

摘要

Aim: To compare the developmental dental anomalies associated with maxillary canine-first premolar (MxCP1) transposition and those of palatally displaced canine (PDC) with each other and with the background prevalence in the Maltese population in order to elucidate whether the two conditions have similar or differing genetic backgrounds.
