L3- Dental Anomalies II Flashcards
Inherited genetic mutation. Isolated or syndromic. Enamel is affected in all or nearly all teeth:
Amelogenesis imperfecta
What dentition does amelogenesis imperfecta typically affect?
BOTH primary & permanent
List and describe the four general types of amelogenesis imperfecta:
- Type I- hyopplastic type
- Type II- hypomaturation type
- Type III- hypomineralize/hypocalcified
- Type IV- hypoplastic
Describe Type I amelogenesis imperfecta:
Hypoplastic type
-thinner but hard enamel
Describe Type II amelogenesis imperfecta:
Hypomaturation type
-relatively hard but colored (not translucent) enamel
Describe Type III amelogenesis imperfecta:
Hypomineralized or Hypocalcified
-soft or rough colored under mineralized enamel
Describe Type IV amelogenesis imperfecta:
Hypoplastic
-hypomature with taurodontism
What type of amelogenesis imperfecta is being described?
“Thin but mineralized enamel, looks radiopaque”
Type I- hypoplastic type
Type I amelogenesis imperfecta is a ____ enamel defect
quantitative
Type I amelogenesis imperfecta is a quantitative enamel defect caused by:
failure during enamel matrix secretary stage (enamel agenesia is rare)
Describe teeth that are affected by amelogenesis imperfecta Type I:
- generalized or localized pits, striae or groove defects
- diffuse smooth, or rough
- teeth appear white to yellow-brown
- small teeth
- square shaped teeth
- open contact “picket fence” appearance
- Flat occlusal surface with low cusps
- delayed eruption & increased impaction
If someone displays a “picket fence” appearance this might be indicative of:
Type I amelogenesis imperfecta
Type I amelogenesis imperfecta cause delayed _____ and increased ____
eruption; impaction

Type of amelogenesis imperfecta in which the patient has a normal thickness of enamel, but the enamel is soft (as radio dense as dentin) & less translucid:
Type II- HYPOmaturation
Type II amelogenesis imperfecta is considered a ____ defect
qualitative
Describe the enamel with type II amelogenesis imperfecta:
- soft enamel (as radio dense as dentin)
- less translucent enamel (cloudy white, yellow or brown color)
- hard & protective
