Q

what areas do you need to investigate for generalised environmental enamel defects

A

prenatal
neonatal
postnatal

21
Q

name a hereditary hard tissue defect

A

amelogenesis imperfecta

22
Q

how do you make your diagnosis of amelogenesis imperfecta

A

family history
affecting both dentitions
affecting all teeth
tooth size/structure/colour
radiographs

23
Q

what gene mutations are present with amelogenesis imperfecta

A

amelogenin
enamelin
kallikrein 4

24
Q

what is the hypoplastic amelogensis imperfecta

A

enamel crystals do not grow to correct length

25
Q

what is hypomineralised amelogenesis imperfecta

A

crystallites fail to grow in thickness and width

26
Q

what is hypomaturational amelogenesis imperfecta

A

enamel crystals grow incompletely in thickness or width but to normal length with incomplete mineralisation

27
Q

what are the problems that occur with amelogenesis imperfecta

A

sensitivity
caries/acid susceptibility
poor aesthetics
poor oral hygiene
delayed eruption
anterior open bite

28
Q

what are the solutions to the problems which occur with amelogenesis imperfecta

A

preventive therapy
composite veneers/wash
fissure sealants
metal onlays
stainless steel crowns
orthodontics

29
Q

why can orthodontics be a problem with amelogenesis imperfecta

A

there is not good enough enamel to bond to so the brackets can debond

30
Q

what systemic disorders are associated with amelogenesis imperfecta

A

epidermolysis bullosa
incontinenti pigmenti
downs syndrome
prader willi
porphyria
tuberous sclerosis
pseudohypoparathyroidism
hurlers

31
Q

what are the anomalies of dentine structure

A

dentinogenesis imperfecta
dentine dysplasia
odotnotdysplasia
systemic disturbance

32
Q

what is dentine dysplasia

A

normal crown but short roots and pulp obliteration

33
Q

what is odontodysplasia

A

localised arrest in tooth development, large pulp chamber, ghost teeth

34
Q

what are the 3 types of dentinogenesis imperfecta

A

1 - osteogenesis imperfecta
2 - autosomal dominant
3 - brandywine

35
Q

what is in the diagnosis for dentinogenesis imperfecta

A

appearance
family history
associated osteogenesis imperfecta
both dentitions affected
radiography - bulbous crown and obliterated pulps
enamel loss

36
Q

what does dentinogenesis imperfecta look like

A

teeth appear amber

37
Q

what are the problems with dentinogenesis imperfecta

A

aesthetics
