Amelogenesis imperfecta represents a broad spectrum of genetic diseases affecting enamel formation in both deciduous and permanent dentition. This paper describes different phenotypes of amelogenesis imperfecta in deciduous, mixed and permanent dentition and treatment options, including a novel treatment possibility for extracted anterior deciduous teeth. The results showed that diagnosis and t...

BACKGROUND Amelogenesis imperfecta represents a group of developmental conditions, clinically and genetically heterogeneous, that affect the structure and clinical appearance of enamel. Amelogenesis imperfecta occurred as an isolated trait or as part of a genetic syndrome. Recently, disease-causing mutations in the FAM20A gene were identified, in families with an autosomal recessive syndrome as...

Amelogenesis imperfecta is an abnormal formation of the enamel. This anomaly associated with malformation of proteins, such as ameloblastin, enamelin, tuftelin and amelogenin. A few study report, mutation in the AMELX, ENAM, MMP20 and KLK-4 genes have been found to cause amelogenesis imperfecta. Mutations of AMELX, ENAM, MMP20 and KLK-4 genes will alter the structure of protein, that are essent...

Amelogenesis imperfecta is a group of genetic disorders that affects both the morphology and quality of tooth structure. Although the disease entity is primarily associated with abnormalities of dental and oral structures, it has been reported to be associated with a few syndromes. A 9-year-old girl with minor thalassemia referred to the Department of Pediatric Dentistry of the Mashhad Faculty ...

Amelogenesis imperfecta is a term for a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of conditions that affect the dental enamel. This paper reports a case of Amelogenesis Imperfect managed by composite veneers.

Amelogenesis Imperfecta is a hereditary anomaly that affects the enamel of human teeth and is not associated with any systemic disorder of affected patients. The affected teeth are disturbed in coloration, thickness and resistance. The rehabilitation of amelogenesis imperfecta in a child must take into account the development of the child's teeth, the health of the periodontal tissues and the m...

Defective enamel formation is the defects occurring at the stages of enamel formation. Amelogenesis imperfect (AI) is a hereditary disorder that causes developmental disturbances in the structure of enamel. Quantitative defects in matrix formation leads to hypoplastic form of Amelogenesis imperfecta. Inadequate mineralization of matrix leads to hypocalcification and hypomaturationvariants. It i...

INTRODUCTION Amelogenesis imperfecta is an inherited disease characterized by generalized structural abnormalities of the enamel on all teeth, including both primary and permanent dentition. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case report of a rare association of amelogenesis imperfecta, platyspondyly, and bicytopenia. CASE PRESENTATION A 5-year-old Moroccan boy was examined in th...
