Abstract：
OBJECTIVE: This cross-sectional study investigated the association between fungiform papillae (FP) numbers and tooth number anomalies in children, considering variables related to hypodontia and hyperdontia. The aim was to explore this association while adjusting for age and sex differences.
METHODS: A total of 144 children (aged 8-10) were categorized into hypodontia (n = 48), hyperdontia (n = 48), and control groups (n = 48). Clinical and radiographic diagnoses were used to classify tooth number anomalies. Hypodontia was categorized by number and location, while hyperdontia was categorized by number, shape, and location. FP were assessed using the Denver Papillae Protocol. Data analyses were performed using NCSS software, with p < 0.05 considered statistically significant.
RESULTS: The hypodontia group (22.5 ± 8.4) exhibited significantly lower FP than the control group (30.4 ± 9.2) and the hyperdontia group (27.9 ± 7.8) (p < 0.0005, p = 0.003, respectively). No significant difference existed between the hyperdontia and control groups. FP numbers in hypodontia subgroups showed no significant differences based on teeth agenesis numbers or locations. Similarly, hyperdontia subgroup analyses revealed no significant differences in FP numbers based on supernumerary teeth shapes (supplemental, conical, tuberculoid, paramolar) or the numbers of supernumerary teeth.
CONCLUSIONS: The lower FP numbers in children with hypodontia suggested an association between teeth and FP number. However, the non-significant difference in FP numbers with hyperdontia underscored the complexity of tooth development, warranting further investigations.
CONCLUSIONS: Children with hypodontia may exhibit distinct FP numbers compared to those without tooth number anomalies.

摘要：
目的：这项横断面研究调查了儿童菌状乳头（FP）数量与牙齿数量异常之间的关系，考虑与牙体发育不良和牙体发育不良相关的变量。目的是在调整年龄和性别差异的同时探索这种关联。
方法：总共144名儿童（8-10岁）被归类为低体症（n=48），牙髓症（n=48），对照组(n=48)。临床和影像学诊断用于对牙齿数量异常进行分类。缺省症按数量和位置分类，虽然多牙症是按数量分类的，形状,和位置。FP使用丹佛乳头方案进行评估。使用NCSS软件进行数据分析，p<0.05被认为具有统计学意义。
结果：低体组（22.5±8.4）的FP明显低于对照组（30.4±9.2）和高体组（27.9±7.8）（p<0.0005，p=0.003，分别）。牙体畸形组和对照组之间没有显着差异。根据牙齿发育不全的数量或位置，下颌亚组的FP数量没有显着差异。同样，多牙症亚组分析显示，基于多余牙齿形状的FP数量没有显着差异(补充，圆锥形,圆锥形结核杆菌,副摩尔）或多余牙齿的数量。
结论：牙髓功能减退儿童的FP数较低表明牙齿与FP数之间存在关联。然而,FP数量与牙体发育的不显着差异强调了牙齿发育的复杂性，保证进一步调查。
结论：与没有牙齿数量异常的儿童相比，牙髓不足的儿童可能表现出不同的FP数量。
