Histological and Ultrastructure Analysis of Dentin Dysplasia Type I in Primary Teeth: A Case Report

Abstract: Dentin dysplasia type I (DD-I) is a rare human dentin disorder that may affect both the primary and permanent dentitions. The teeth present crowns with normal morphology but short or absent roots. Pulp chamber obliteration and early exfoliation of primary teeth are also observed. We describe herein the typical and atypical features of DD-I presented by a 6-year-old patient, the diagnostic rationale and assessment emphasizing the histological and scanning electron microscopic analysis and the therapeutic approa… Show more

“…The absence of teeth influences the aesthetics and masticator function with consequent impairment in the quality of life of the patient5. Dentin dysplasia is a rare condition, with a complex diagnosis, and the need for evaluation and interdisciplinary planning [8]. The differential diagnosis of DDI is made with dentinogenesisimperfecta, aware autosomal dominant condition, at which teeth may exhibit color changes, hypo mineralized and exposed dentin, bulbous crowns, cervical constriction, thick and short roots and obliteration of the pulp chamber [2].…”

“…Unlike MIM, this condition is hereditary and is also called "rootless teeth". 20,21 Dentinal disorganization can happen at different stages of tooth development, which can vary from one patient to another and from tooth to tooth in the same patient. The most affected were deciduous teeth and, in permanent teeth, it depends on the proportion of dentin between organized and disorganized dentin.…”
