31 , 32 Palatal impaction of upper canines showed a trend toward delayed dental age, although it did not reach statistical significance. 33 Conversely, mesiodens were associated with advanced dental age, supporting the hypothesis that supernumerary teeth may be linked to accelerated dental maturation. 34 Associative patterns and genetic implications A major contribution of this study is the identification of 5 distinct associative patterns of anomalies through hierarchical cluster analysis, which reinforces the hypothesis that certain dental anomalies share a common genetic basis, opening the possibility of future research in the identification of key genetic or familial data.
