[The congenital absence of the permanent upper lateral incisors with the persistence of the deciduous canines in a subject of the Iron Age from the Sulmona (AQ) necropolis].
The paper reports a case of bilateral agenesia of the permanent upper lateral incisors associated with the persistence of the deciduous eye teeth placed between the first premolars and the permanent canine teeth which, in turn, had emerged in place of the agenetic lateral incisors (situs dentis inversus) in a adult male from the Iron Age whose skeletal remains were exhumed from tomb no. 58 of the Sulmona necropolis (AQ). The authors place the case in the context of agenesia as found both in today's population and in ancient times.
