This clinical photograph showcases oligodontia, a rare genetic condition characterized by the congenital absence of six or more permanent teeth. Often associated with PAX9, MSX1, or EDAR gene mutations, oligodontia is classified under non-syndromic tooth agenesis and affects less than 0.2% of the population.
