综合牙科检查和全景x线片用于确定662名澳大利亚国防军新兵的下颌畸形患病率。在抽样人群中，6.3%的人表现出一定程度的下颌畸形（排除第三磨牙发育不全）。之前的研究也得出了类似的结果。第三磨牙发育发生在22.7%的样本中，这再次与其他研究一致。第三磨牙发育的性别差异无统计学意义；然而，上第二前磨牙有显著差异。女性上颌侧门牙缺失的发生率极低。
Comprehensive dental examinations and panoramic radiographs were used to determine the prevalence of hypodontia in 662 Australian Defence Force recruits. Of the sampled population, 6.3 per cent exhibited some degree of hypodontia (third molar agenesis excluded). Previous studies produced similar results. Third molar agenesis occurred in 22.7 per cent of the sample which again is in agreement with other studies. There was no statistical difference between the sexes in third molar agenesis; however, there was a significant difference with upper second premolars. Females exhibited an extremely low incidence of absence of maxillary lateral incisors.
