Nonfluoride Hypomineralizations in the Permanent First Molars and Their Impact on the Treatment Need

Abstract: To determine the prevalence of nonfluoride enamel hypomineralization in the permanent first molars, we examined 488 7– to 13–year–old children. We further examined the impact of such defects on the treatment need by evaluating the number of caries lesions, restorations and extractions of the target teeth. Nonfluoride hypomineralization(s) were seen in 94 children (19.3%). The severity of defects varied from mild lesions with local color change to more severe ones where the hypomineralized tissue had been repla… Show more

“…Affected teeth often develop advanced carious lesions and, therefore, require substantial restorative care and repeated treatments (Leppäniemi et al 2001; Ghanim et al 2013b). Views of the oral healthcare providers from the European, Australian, New Zealand, South-east Asian, and Middle Eastern regions indicate that the clinical effect of MIH is increasing and poses a costly burden for public health (Weerheijm and Mejàre 2003; Crombie et al 2008; Ghanim et al 2011a; Bagheri et al 2014; Hussein et al 2014).…”
