Abstract
Malocclusion is a manifestation of the interplay between genetic and environmental variables on the development of the orofacial region, whereas growth is the cumulative effect of numerous environmental and genetic variables over time. When diagnosing orthodontic problems hereditary variables should be taken into account in order to identify the root of the problem, as this may also impact how orthodontic therapy turns out in the end. Treatment options for malocclusions resulting from genetic causes are generally considered to be less effective than those resulting from environmental factors. The likelihood of a good orthodontic intervention outcome decreases with increasing hereditary component. A clinician's capacity to treat malocclusions effectively would be substantially improved by understanding the different effects of inherited and environmental variables.When diagnosing almost all dentofacial anomalies, orthodontists may be concerned with genetics to learn more about the reasons behind a patient's specific occlusion. Genetic variables are a crucial component of treatment.
