    Study Notes

    Enamel Defects

    • Enamel defects can be caused by genetic and environmental factors.
    • Abnormalities in enamel can be categorized into hypoplasia, hypomineralization, and hypomaturation.
    • Hypoplasia is a reduction in enamel quantity, resulting in pits, grooves, or thin enamel.
    • Hypomineralization is reduced mineralization, leading to soft enamel.
    • Hypomaturation is characterized by altered translucency of enamel, often appearing opaque and discolored.
    • Enamel defects caused by hypoplasia are thought to occur during matrix formation.
    • Enamel defects caused by hypomineralization and hypomaturation arise from changes affecting enamel mineralization.

    Dentin Defects

    • Inherited dentin defects can affect only dentin or involve both dentin and bone.
    • Two major types of dentin defects are dentinogenesis imperfecta and dentin dysplasia.
    • Dentinogenesis imperfecta is the most common type of dentin defect.
    • Dentinogenesis imperfecta Type I is associated with osteogenesis imperfecta, a genetic condition affecting bone.
    • Dentinogenesis imperfecta Type II is a mild form of dentin dysplasia and is often associated with a mutation in the DSPP gene.
    • Dentin dysplasia Type II is characterized by a mild form of dentinogenesis imperfecta.
    • Dentin defects can be diagnosed early by screening family history and known associated medical conditions.

    Rickets

    •   Rickets, a disease affecting bone development, can also affect dental health.
    • Dental complications associated with dental rickets include enamel hypoplasia, delayed eruption, and tooth discoloration.
