Objectives: To identify dental anomalies in patients who attended a private and an institutional dental practice from September, 2009 to January, 2010.


Materials and methods: A descriptive study was made with 525 patients who attended the dental practice. There were found and classified 115 dental anomalies, corresponding to 21.9% of cases.


Results: There were found 115 cases in patients from 5 to 27 years of age, 63% of male and 37% female. The most common dental anomalies corresponded to position anomalies, with 39 cases (34%) followed by the abnormalities in number presented in 19 cases (16.5%). Anomalies of structure and color were 12.1% and the less common were root anomalies present in 6.9% of cases.


Conclusions: The dental anomalies of any kind are common in dental patients, so is important to make a correct diagnose of patients attending a dental clinic, to record the findings on the clinical history and to implement treatment plans to improve function, aesthetics, comfort and self-esteem.
