This narrative and perspective review consolidates literature on Angle's Class I occlusion, which is considered the norm but has variable prevalence across populations. It identifies Angle's Class I as the most prevalent malocclusion, followed by Class II, with Class III being least common. Genetic factors, including variants in genes like MSX1, PAX9, and AXIN2, are associated with increased risk. Limitations include challenges in comparing studies due to differences in population age, size, and methodology. Implications suggest that understanding prevalence and genetic contributions is crucial for public health planning and early intervention.
