Is There Any Association between Blood Group and Impacted Third Molars?

View through CrossRef
Background: Blood type is an important genetic characteristic that is inherited from parents’ thorough alleles, and might be related to several problems, including, dental conditions. In the present study we examined the probable association of impacted teeth and blood groups. Methods: This retrospective study was done on patients who were referred for obtaining oral radiographs. For each blood group and Rh factor, we randomly selected 40 patients. The type of blood group of the participants was also obtained from the medical records available in the patients’ history archives. Results: A total of 320 participants contributed to the study, 136 (42%) were males and 184 (57%) were females. The mean age was 29 ± 6 years. Among all participants, 205 (64%) had no impacted third molar, 26 (8%) had one impacted third molar, 43 (13%) had 2 impacted third molars, 5 (1%) had 3 impacted third molars, and 41 (12%) had 4 impacted molars. Conclusion: In the present study no significant association was found between ABO blood groups and impacted third molars.
