Amelogenesis Imperfecta: A Review of the Literature
نویسنده
چکیده
Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) is a hereditary group of disorder that causes disturbance in enamel formation resulting in developmental alterations of mineralization. Restoration of the dentition poses a great challenge when all the teeth are severely affected. The treatment opportunities for these patients may help in refining their lifestyle. The total treatment modality aims to relieve the pain and sensitivity, and preserving the tooth structure as much as possible. This article discusses both the structural and aesthetic rehabilitation of a patient with different typesof AI.

Amelogenesis imperfecta is an inherited disease that disturbs the formation of the enamel. It occurs as two main categories, hypomineralized and hypoplastic. Both deciduous and permanent teeth are affected, and the disorder may create unaesthetic appearance, dental sensitivity, and severe attrition. In this article through performing a structured literature review, numerous treatment modalities...

Introduction: Dentin dysplasia is a rare autosomal dominant inheriting disturbance of dentin formation characterized by normal enamel formation, but atypical dentin with abnormal pulpal morphology. There are two major patterns: type I and type II. Amelogenesis imperfecta is an autosomal dominant. X-link inherent disease that is classified by clinical manifestation into hypoplastic, hyp...

Background and Aim: Amelogenesis Imperfecta is a hereditary complication that affects the quality and quantity of tooth enamel. This disease usually affects both deciduous and permanent dentition and causes various abnormalities such as unaesthetic appearance, dental sensitivity, and severe attrition. The incidence of this condition is estimated at 1 in 14,000 people. At the moment, there are n...

Amelogenesis Imperfectas (AIs) are clinically and genetically heterogeneous conditions characterized by a wide range of clinical features. These abnormalities of enamel formation are categorized into three main groups, hypoplastic, hypomaturation and hypocalcified with different modes of inheritance such as autosomal recessive (AR), autosomal dominant (AD) and X-lined recessive (XLR). In spite ...
متن کاملComputational approach towards identification of pathogenic missense mutations in AMELX gene and their possible association with amelogenesis imperfecta
Amelogenin gene (AMEL-X) encodes an enamel protein called amelogenin, which plays a vital role in tooth development. Any mutations in this gene or the associated pathway lead to developmental abnormalities of the tooth. The present study aims to analyze functional missense mutations in AMEL-X genes and derive an association with amelogenesis imperfecta. The information on miss...
