“…Severe dentin hypomineralization and abnormal dentin structure are characteristics of dentinogenesis imperfecta [20]. Rapid tooth wear suggests that the primary dentition is more severely affected than the permanent dentition [21,22]. The teeth are weak and show gray, blue, or amber brown and opalescent discoloration in addition to their diminutive height [22,26].…”

Infection with some diseases can manifest in the oral cavity through an appearance of ulcers, alterations in color, as well as changes in the size and structure of the oral design. The study focused on examining genetic variants as potential biomarkers for heightened vulnerability to periodontal disease. The objective of this article is to present a comprehensive survey of oral diseases that arise as a consequence of genetic problems. Due to the heightened vulnerability to gum and tooth disease associated with numerous genetic abnormalities, the appearance of these symptoms tends to occur quickly and with notable severity.

“…Enamel and dentine abnormalities can cause disruptions to the structure of teeth due to hypoplasia, hypomineralization and hypomaturation in organic or inorganic components of the enamel and dentine. Hypoplasia and hypomineralization are common signs of developing enamel defects, whereas dentine abnormalities include dentine dysplasia and dentinogenesis imperfecta [8]. More often than not, the enamel defects present as anomalies of enamel and dentine with wearing, dentine-exposing and enamel cracks are regarded as clinical indicators and symptoms [9].…”

Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI), dentinogenesis imperfecta (DI), and dentin dysplasia (DD) are hereditary illnesses that affect the growth and architecture of teeth’s hard tissues (enamel and dentine). These diseases present clinical symptoms such as tooth discoloration, enamel/dentine abnormalities, and enhanced tooth sensitivity. AI is defined by teeth enamel flaws, while DI is characterized by anomalies in dentin development, leading to opalescent or yellow-brown teeth, greater translucency, and a higher risk of fractures. DD is less prevalent than AI or DI. The genetic basis of DD, DI, and AI is derived from gene alterations. Mutations in the DSPP, DMP1, COL1A1, and COL1A2 genes are linked to DI, while the DSPP, DMP1, and COL1A2 genes are the cause of DD. Family genetic history was used to detect genetic mutation and confirm diagnosis, with treatment options including endodontic therapy, restorative dentistry, and preventative treatments as in fluoride therapy and oral hygiene guidelines. Early diagnosis and effective treatment are essential for enhancing oral health and quality of life.

The advantages of Clear Aligners Therapy (CAT) include the braces being virtually invisible, comfortable to wear, and removable for eating and brushing; that way, CAT can be used to treat a wide range of orthodontic issues. In 1999, the company Align Technology introduced the frst commercial clear aligner system called Invisalign. The Invisalign system was initially only available to orthodontists, but later became available to general dentists as well. The system quickly gained popularity among patients who were looking for a more discreet and comfortable alternative to traditional braces. In 2000, Align Technology received FDA clearance for the Invisalign system, which further increased its popularity. The biomechanics of clear aligners involve the use of custom-made tooth aligners that are specifcally shaped to guide teeth into desired positions. These aligners are typically made from flexible materials such as polyurethane or ethylene vinyl acetate and are adjusted to apply the necessary forces for tooth movement. Attachment devices, such as power ridges or buttons, are often used to enhance or assist in specifc tooth movements and for retention of the aligner. The use of attachments allows for the exertion of desired force on the teeth, which is crucial for the success of Clear Aligner Therapy. CAT should be used if patients are concerned about the esthetic appearances of their teeth—for example, actors and other individuals that rely on their appearances in public in a professional context—and if the misalignment is not severe, so that clear aligners can still work. One should not use CAT in cases of severe crowding or spacing issues that require extractions. If the patient has complex jaw discrepancies or skeletal issues or if teeth need to be moved extensively in multiple directions, CAT is likely not going to be strong enough. In conclusion, Clear Aligner Therapy is a safe, effective, and convenient orthodontic treatment option that offers patients a virtually invisible way to achieve a straighter, more beautiful smile. With continued advancements in technology and a growing body of research supporting its effectiveness, the future of Clear Aligner Therapy looks bright.
