Abstract:
Amelogenesis Imperfecta (AI) is a complicated group of genetic conditions that demonstrate various isolated differentiations in enamel structure in the absence of a systemic disease. In general, both primary and permanent dentitions are diffusely involved in AI. There is still much to be known and explored concerning the at least 14 subtypes of AI, but the main struggle with this diagnosis is the careful consideration of treatment and prognosis with each varying clinical presentation. This case report details the dental rehabilitation of a 12-year-old male diagnosed with AI, presenting with both hypoplastic and hypocalcified over-retained deciduous and existing permanent dentition. The full mouth rehabilitation to be completed in an operating room under general anesthesia will be reviewed along with its rationale and the difficulties this specific patient will introduce to this treatment and its prognosis.
