1. What is the difference between how environmental and genetic factors affect tooth abnormalities?
Environmental affect the portion of the tooth developing at that time
-fever line (hypoplastic defect)

Genetics, every tooth is affected equally in both dentitions
2. What is amelogenesis imperfecta?

Why is finding the family pedigree difficult for AI?

What are the three steps in enamel formation?
Defect of enamel without systemic disorder
**only enamel

Variety of inheritance patterns and parents may have complex dental treatment so not seeing natural appearance

1. Elaboration of organic matrix
2. Mineralization of organic matrix
3. Maturation of enamel
3. What are the four types of AI?
1. Hypoplastic

2. Hypocalcified

3. Hypomaturation

4. Hypomaturation/ hypocalcified
4. What is hypoplastic amelogenesis imperfecta?

What is hypocalcified AI?

What is hypomaturation AI?
Inadequate deposition of enamel matrix

Enamel matrix is deposited but does not mineralize

Enamel matrix is deposited, it is mineralized but does not mature to crystaline structure
5. How is the enamel in hypoplastic AI?

Which teeth are affected?

What is the inheritance pattern?
Enamel is not formed to full thickness (thin)

Affects all deciduous and permanent teeth

AD, AR, X-linked
6. What are the clinical features of hypoplastic AI?
1. Pitted pattern
-buccal surface pits

2. Localized pattern
-horizontal rows of pits

3. Smooth pattern

4. Rough pattern

5. Enamel agenesis
7. What is the smooth pattern of hypoplastic AI?
Teeth are tapered

Open contacts

Opaque white to brown
8. What is the rough pattern of hypoplastic AI?
Tapering

Open contact

White-yellow

Rough surface
9. What is enamel agenesis?
Lack of enamel

Tapering

Color of dentin
10. What are the radiographic features of hypoplastic AI?

Three things...
1. Thin periphery of radiopaque enamel

2. In agenesis there is total lack of enamel

3. Normal pulp chambers
11. What is hypocalcified AI?

What is the inheritance pattern?

Which teeth are affected by hypocalcified AI?
Enamel is easily lost after eruption

*teeth look like this on eruption

Inherited AD, AR

*AR tends to be more severe

Affects all deciduous and permanent teeth
12. What are the clinical features of hypocalcified AI?

Four things...
1. Enamel appears yellow-brown on eruption, later becomes stained brown-black

2. Heavy calculus deposition

3. Irregular occlusal surfaces

4. Anterior open bite
13. What are the radiographic features of hypocalcified AI?

Two things..
1. Enamel is similar in density to dentin

2. Normal pulp chambers

**also normal dentin, roots
14. How is the enamel in hypomaturation AI?

What is the pattern of inheritance?

Which teeth are affected?
Enamel is softer than normal and tends to "chip-off" easily

*teeth are normal size but chip off easily

Inherited AR, X-linked recessive

Affects all teeth in deciduous and permanent dentition
15. What are the three patterns of hypomaturation AI?
1. Pigmented pattern

2. X-linked pattern

3. Snow-capped pattern
16. What are the clinical features of the pigmented pattern?

Three things...
1. Molted, brown surface

2. Enamel can be pierced w/ explored tip

3. No alteration in shape of teeth
17. What are the clinical features of the X-linked pattern?

Two things...
1. Opaque white motting

2. Teeth have normal shapes
18. What are the clinical features of the snow-capped pattern?

Three things...
1. "Denture dipped in white paint"

2. White opaque enamel on incisal or occlusal third

3. Normally shaped
19. What are the radiographic features of hypomaturation AI?

Two things...
1. Reduced contrast between enamel and dentin

2. Normal pulp chambers
20. What is hypomaturation/ hypoplastic AI?

What is the pattern of inheritance?

Which teeth does it affect?
Combination of both enamel defects

Inherited AD

Seen in both deciduous and permanent teeth
21. What are the two patterns of hypomaturation/ hypoplastic AI?
1. Hypomaturation-hypoplastic pattern

2. Hypoplastic-hypomaturation pattern
22. What are the clinical features of the hypomaturation-hypoplastic pattern?
1. Predominant defect in enamel maturation

2. Mottled yellow-white colors

3. Pits on buccal surfaces
23. What are the clinical features of the hypoplastic-hypomaturation pattern?
1. Mostly enamel hypoplasia

2. Teeth are tapered

3. Open contacts
24. What are the radiographic features of hypomaturation/ hypoplastic AI?

Three things...
1. Reduced contrast between enamel and dentin

2. Thin periphery of enamel in hypoplastic predominant

3. Taurodontism may be seen
25. What are the treatment options for amelogenesis imperfecta?
1. Full coverage to avoid attrition

2. If enough tooth structure, crowns and facial veneers

3. Not enough tooth structure remaining, overdentures
26. What is dentinogenesis imperfecta?

What is the inheritance pattern?

What can DI also be seen with?
Developmental defect that affects dentin collagen

Only AD

In combination w/ genetic collagen disorder osteogenesis imperfecta
27. What is the classification system of DI?
