Tooth Agenesis Panel
Use
This test is designed for individuals showing clinical signs or having a suspected diagnosis of tooth agenesis, particularly those identified with missing permanent teeth on panoramic radiographs after the age of six. It is also recommended for individuals with a family history of tooth agenesis, aiding in the diagnosis and understanding of genetic contributions to this condition.
