The simplest approach for a successful treatment for mandibular complete edentoulism is to adequately extend the denture base for proper use of all available supporting tissues. The ridge borders limiting the floor of the mouth are relatively mobile and give a perception of an unstable area for a less clinical experienced dentist. Thus result improper impressions and, as consequence, improper length of lingual flanges. If the denture borders ends on the support structures, it is impossible to obtain a peripheral seal. An experienced dentist can appreciate the real borders of the functional anatomy of the denture surrouding structures, as premise of a mandibular successful complete denture. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Agenesis of permanent maxillary and mandibular canines is very rare; one to all four can be missing, isolated or in association with other missing teeth or with dental morphology abnormalities. Such cases can present functional, esthetic, and psychological problems, since the canine's role in functional occlusion and in obtaining an aesthetic smile is crucial. Frequently, the canine's absence from the arch is caused by impaction; its congenital absence is extremely rare in patients with no associated syndrome. The aim of this paper was to present a very rare case of a non-syndromic Romanian adult female patient with a unilateral permanent maxillary missing canine, in association with peg-shaped maxillary lateral permanent incisors, which can have a genetic cause, since the same morphological abnormality was present in her father and her younger sister, who also presented a rare situation of bilateral upper transposition between the canines and lateral incisors. The association of a permanent maxillary canine hypodontia with bilateral "peg laterals" and transposition between the maxillary canine and the peg-shaped lateral incisors is also rare as a family character in healthy patients. Future statistical studies are necessary to establish the incidence of permanent maxillary canine agenesis in Romanian population. Also, the article includes a detailed literature review of reported cases of agenesis of permanent maxillary canines.
