“…As indicated above, future MIH research needs to consider both patient-reported outcomes as well as clinical outcomes. Although it should be borne in mind that there is rarely a direct correlation between biomedical measures and patient-reported measures [1]. The present study is, however, ongoing and will determine patient-reported and clinical outcomes at six-months, providing valuable and unprecedented longitudinal data.…”

Change in Oral Health-Related Quality of Life Following Minimally Invasive Aesthetic Treatment for Children with Molar Incisor Hypomineralisation: A Prospective Study

Molar incisor hypomineralisation (MIH) is a common enamel condition, presenting with incisor opacities, which may be of psychosocial concern to children. This clinical study sought to determine whether minimally invasive treatment, aiming to improve incisor aesthetics, would also improve children’s oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL). 111 MIH patients, aged 7–16 years, referred to a UK Dental Hospital, were invited to complete the Child Oral Health Impact Profile (C-OHIP-SF19) prior to any intervention (T0) and again at one-month following the intervention (T1) for MIH. Treatment regimens included one or more of the following: Microabrasion; resin infiltration; tooth whitening; resin composite restoration. Data were obtained for 93 children with a mean age of 11 years. Mean total C-OHIP-SF19 score at T0 was 47.00 (SD = 9.29; range = 0–76) and this increased significantly at T1 to 58.24 (SD = 9.42; range = 0–76; p < 0.001, paired t-test), indicating a marked improvement in self-reported OHRQoL. There were no statistically significant differences according to gender. This is the first study to show that simple, minimally invasive dental treatment, to reduce the visibility of enamel opacities, in MIH, can have a positive impact on children’s wellbeing.

“…It is well recognised that children with developmental enamel defects may experience a range of psychosocial impacts [1]. For young people with visible defects, poor dental appearance and a sense of feeling different may have a particularly negative effect on social interactions and self-esteem [2,3].…”

“…Chronological hypoplasia was considered as a differential diagnosis as no family history of teeth abnormalities was reported. However, a diagnosis of AI was made based on the fact that all the teeth were affected and associated with a skeletal anterior open bite [ 15 ].…”

Oral Rehabilitation Using Noninvasive Restorative Approach for Late Mixed Dentition of Preterm Birth Child with Amelogenesis Imperfecta

Preterm birth children comprise about 6% of live births around the world. It is known that premature children exhibit oral anomalies that could affect the function and/or appearance of their dentition in addition to their medical needs. A diagnosis of amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) can present a challenge for both the patient and the treating clinician. This can be more complicated in the case of child treatment, where cooperation and some of the treatment modalities for adults can not be considered. Conventional management of such children is not possible due to the ongoing process of growth and development and the ability of the child to cope with the extensive and lengthy treatment procedure. This article highlights a minimally invasive method for managing AI using adhesive and full-coverage restoration that requires no tooth preparation; this allows the structural integrity of the teeth to be maintained, along with their vitality. As a result, the child will have teeth with better function and aesthetic, to improve eating, appearance, and self-confidence.

“…The psychosocial impact of enamel defects on children is not a new concept, and there is a growing body of literature on this subject from both clinical and social science researchers 53 . However, the oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) and well-being of children with MIH, as a specific entity, is a relatively recent area of enquiry.…”
