[Atypical diastemas in the anterior region of the jaws].
Familial occurrence of diastemas in the pericanine region of the maxilla and mandible was described which differs from known localizations. Postcanine occurrence was found in the maxilla; precanine occurrence, in the mandible. This therefore differs from phylogenic diastemas, such as the diastemas in the deciduous dentation of monkeys and primates. Reasons for the influence of local disturbances (e.g., aplasia, dystopia, persistence of embryofetal frenula) could not be determined; ritual (traumatic) mutilation could also be excluded.
