The local factors responsible formalocclusion:-
Anomalies in number of teeth
- supernumerary teeth
-missing teeth Anomalies of tooth size
Anomalies of tooth shape
Abnormal labial frenum Premature loss of deciduous teeth
Prolonged retention of deciduous

Anomalies in number of teeth:-
supernumerary teeth:- Teeth that areextra to the normal complement aretermed supernumerary teeth.These arehaving abnormal morphology.
A frequently seen supernumerary tooth ismesiodens which occurs in maxillarymidline

Missing teeth:- most commonly missingteeth are-third molars, maxillarylateral incisors, mandibular 2nd
premolars, mandibular incisors,maxillary 2nd premolars.
Absence of teeth cause spacing in the
arch and causes mesial migration ofdistal tooth.

Anomalies of tooth size:-
In order to have normal occlusion thereshould beharmony between tooth size& arch length & also between toothpresent between in each arches.
An increase in tooth size causes crowdingin the arch & decrease in teeth sizecauses spacing in the arch

Anomalies of tooth shape:-
-presence of peg shaped lateral incisors-presence of abnormally large cingulumon a maxillary incisors.
-mandibular 2nd premolar may rarelyhave an additional lingual cusp.
-congenital syphilis may be associatedwith abnormal tooth form;peg shaped
laterals and mulberry molars.-dilaceration, fusion, gemination.

Abnormal labial frenum:-
abnormalities of maxillary labial frenumarequite often associated with amaxillary midline spacing.

Prolonged retention of deciduous teeth
- undue retention of deciduous teeth
beyond the usual eruption age of theirpermanent successors.
- it results in lingual or labial/buccaleruption of permanent teeth.
Reasons for delayed retention ofdeciduous teeth is :- Absence of
underlying permanent teeth,endocrinaldisturbances, non vital deciduous teeth
that do not resorb.

Delayed eruption of permanent teeth
Reasons that causes delayed eruption ofpermanent teeth are;
congenital absence of teeth, presence ofsupernumerary tooth in the path of
permanent teeth, presence of heavymucosal barrier, endocrinal disturbancesand presence of non vital deciduous teeth
that are not resorb.

Abnormal eruptive path
one of the cause of malocclusion is anabnormal eruptive path of eruptionwhich could be due to arch lengthdeficiency, presence of supernumerary
teeth retained root fragments orformation of bony barrier.

Ankylosis:- Is a condition wherein apart or whole of the root surace isdirectly fused to the bone withabsence of intervening periodontalmembrane.
Dental caries:- proximal caries thatnot restored causes mesial migration
of distal teeth and lead into decreasein arch length.

Improper dental restoration:-
Over contour
ed occlusal r
estoration maylead to premature contacts leading to
functional shift of mandible during jawclosure.
Under contoured may causeeruption ofantagonist tooth
