Amelogenesis Imperfecta: Case Study
Operative Dentistry, 2017SUMMARY Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) refers to a group of rare genetic disorders that involve tooth development and that are passed down through families as a dominant trait. This condition is characterized by abnormal enamel formation caused by gene mutations that alter the quality and/or quantity of enamel.

Calcification and amelogenesis in craniopharyngiomas
Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, 1971Abstract A study of calcification and amelogenesis in eighty-four pituitary adamantinomas has confirmed the findings of others that diffuse calcification of islands of the cornified epithelium is the most common feature. It has been found that atypical amelogenesis in the form of enameloids and enamel droplets is also a common alteration which ...

Microradiographic study of amelogenesis imperfecta
European Journal of Oral Sciences, 1989Abstract – A material of 22 primary and 4 permanent teeth from 22 children with amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) were examined by microradiographic techniques. The children were part of a patient material earlier examined in genetical and clinical studies.

Ultrastructural study of amelogenesis imperfecta
Calcified Tissue Research, 1977An ultrastructural study of teeth with amelogenesis imperfecta revealed various aspects of microcavities in the enamel surface, which ranged from isolated imprints of ameloblasts corresponding to the mildest lesions at the end of amelogenesis, to pits caused by the death of 20 to 30 ameloblasts at the beginning of amelogenesis.

Amelogenesis imperfecta:A Genetic Study
Human Heredity, 1988The mode of inheritance and the clinical manifestations of amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) were studied in 51 families from the county of Västerbotten, northern Sweden. Autosomal dominant (AD) was the most probable mode of inheritance in 33 families, but X-linked dominant (XD) inheritance was a possible alternative in one family.

Enamel Formation and Amelogenesis Imperfecta
Cells Tissues Organs, 2007Dental enamel is the epithelial-derived hard tissue covering the crowns of teeth. It is the most highly mineralized and hardest tissue in the body. Dental enamel is acellular and has no physiological means of repair outside of the protective and remineralization potential provided by saliva.

Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, 1963
Abstract 1. 1. The dental symptoms presented by the two cases reported here are compatible with the classic descriptions of enamel hypoplasia, enamel hypocalcification, and associated osteogenesis imperfecta. 2. 2. Because of the hereditary nature of the condition, the clinical and roentgenographic signs may serve as a guide in treatment ...

Early treatment of amelogenesis imperfecta
The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1966Abstract Young adults with amelogenesis imperfecta can be treated successfully with complete mouth rehabilitation if adequate study and planning precede the operation and conservative tooth preparations and a sedative type of cement are used. The patient must understand that the treatment is transitory in nature. Maintenance assumes as dominant a role

Amelogenesis imperfecta: the orthodontic perspective
British Dental Journal, 2012Orthodontics in patients with amelogenesis imperfecta can be complicated by commonly occurring dental features in this group as well as patient factors. In this article we examine ways to avoid the common pitfalls of orthodontic management and the importance of adequate and timely liaison between the general dental practitioner and the ...
