Management of Amelogenesis Imperfecta in Childhood: Two Case Reports

Abstract: Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) is defined as an interruption of enamel formation due to genetic inheritance. To prevent malfunction of the masticatory system and an unaesthetic appearance, various treatment options are described. While restoration with a compomer in the anterior region and stainless steel crowns in the posterior region is recommended for deciduous dentition, the challenges when treating such structural defects in mixed or permanent dentition are changing teeth and growing jaw, allowing only temp… Show more

“…Dentigerous cysts associated with impacted teeth in AI patients are rarely reported in the literature. During the mixed dentition period, Möhn M. et al discussed various management dentitions for AI patients [ 11 ]. Matthew L. et al and Tripathy M. et al reported a case of multiple periapical cysts in an AI patient and its management.…”
