Title: Localized enamel hypoplasia of human deciduous canine teeth: prevalence and pattern of expression in rural Pakistan
Date: 1991
Source: Human Biology
Abstract: Using a living sample from Pakistan, found no statistically significant sex, socioeconomic, or stature differences. Defects occurred more often in the mandible than maxilla, with no significant side difference, and asymmetrical defects were twice as common as symmetric ones. LHPC was seen in 14.6% of the canine teeth in 113 children, with a mean number of affected teeth per affected person 1.6.
