The study investigates the association between genetic polymorphisms (FokI and BglI) and the timing of permanent teeth eruption in children without systemic issues or trauma.
A total of 353 children were clinically examined, and genetic analysis was conducted using saliva samples and advanced genotyping techniques.
The results show that the FokI variant is linked to a significant delay in the eruption of maxillary and total permanent teeth, while BglI did not show any effect.
