Organ System | Phenotype Count | Example Features |
|---|---|---|
Bones and joints | 1 | Periapical bone loss |
SMOC2 function has not been fully characterized.
Dentin dysplasia type I is associated with mutations in the SMOC2 gene on chromosome 6.
Genetic testing for SMOC2 is available. Testing is considered confirmatory for diagnosis.
Phenotype severity distribution: 5 always present features.
Estimated prevalence: 1-9 in 100,000 (Uncommon).
