Diagnosis, Treatment Planning, and Full-mouth Rehabilitation in a Case of Amelogenesis Imperfecta

Mayuri Naik et al. Contemp Clin Dent. 2018 Jan-Mar.

Abstract

Amelogenesis imperfecta is a genetic condition affecting the teeth resulting in aberrations of the structure and clinical appearance of enamel. The treatment of amelogenesis imperfecta involves a multidisciplinary treatment approach requiring a comprehensive examination, diagnosis, and effective treatment planning strategy along with satisfaction of patient-related factors. The clinical case described here involves judicious involvement of different disciplines to formulate a treatment plan best suitable to confirm with the patient's needs and expectations, at the same time maintaining the integrity and harmony of associated hard and soft tissues.

Keywords: Diagnosis; full-mouth rehabilitation; treatment planning.
