Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) represents a group of developmental conditions, genomic in origin, which affect the structure and clinical appearance of enamel of all or nearly all the teeth in a more or less equal manner, and which may be associated with morphologic or biochemical changes elsewhere in the body. The prevalence varies from 1:700 to 1:14,000, according to the populations studied. Th...

amelogenesis imperfecta is a heterogeneous group of hereditary disorders. its treatment continues throughout the patients' childhood and adolescence and consists of advanced restorative care in severe cases. a thorough prosthodontic treatment plan including orthognatic surgery, full veneer crowns and all ceramic anterior crowns is presented in this clinical report.

The main origin of amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) is a genetic alteration inherited by family member which affects the dental enamel teeth person with this condition in various ways. present clinical case from Teaching Dental Clinic Peruvian University Cayetano Heredia 6-year 5-month-old male child who came to office accompanied his father and 8-year-old sister, diagnosed same AI condition. compr...

Amelogenesis imperfecta is a group of rare inherited disorders that affect tooth enamel formation, quantitatively and/or qualitatively. The aim of this study was to identify the genetic etiologies of two families presenting with hypomaturation amelogenesis imperfecta. DNA was isolated from peripheral blood samples obtained from participating family members. Whole exome sequencing was performed ...

BACKGROUND Amelogenesis imperfecta refers a group of hereditary diseases affecting the teeth and can present a variety of clinical forms and appearances, compromising esthetic appearance. Amelogenesis imperfecta variably reduces oral health quality and can result in severe psychological problems. CASE PRESENTATION We present the management of an amelogenesis imperfecta Angle class III maloccl...

A family is described with six members affected by a syndrome of epilepsy, dementia, and amelogenesis imperfecta (Kohlschütter's syndrome). An autosomal recessive pattern of inheritance is established for this disorder.

BACKGROUND Amelogenesis Imperfecta (AI) is a group of conditions where there is an abnormal formation of enamel in terms of quantity, structure and composition. AI is clinically and genetically heterogeneous, there are sex linked and autosomal versions, dominant and/or recessive, with phenotypes of hypoplastic, hypocalcified or hypomature enamel. Only recently, through clinical, genetic and mol...
