Differences in the Eruption Angle of Palatally Displaced Canines in Klinefelter Syndrome: a Retrospective Study on Panoramic Radiographs.

Objective: To investigate the eruption angle of maxillary canine in patients with Klinefelter syndrome (KS) in which high prevalence of palatally displaced canine anomaly (PDC) has been found by clinical assessment.

Subjects And Methods: The sample consisted of 37 KS males aged 20-34 years (mean 27 years) and the control group which consisted of 78 healthy males aged 20-27 years (mean 23 years). A pioneer method was used to measure the eruption angle.
