Abstract
Introduction: Natal or neonatal teeth are considered as cysts of the dental lamina projected on the alveolar crest and composed of compact keratin; the exact etiology of premature eruption is currently unknown. Objective: To know the etiological factors of the natal or neonatal teeth. Methods: A systematic review of publications prepared in the last 5 years congruent with the topic was carried out. Results: A total of 63 published articles were found concerning the natal or neonatal teeth and using the inclusion criteria, 6 articles were found. Conclusion: Little evidence was found and from these they concluded that there is no specific relationship to the appearance of this type of teeth.
