Abstract

Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) is a heterogeneous inherited disorder that disturbs the developing enamel structure. This enamel anomaly affects both the primary and permanent dentitions. The aim of this article was to describe through a series of cases, the therapeutic management of children with AI. The purpose of the treatments were to eliminate tooth sensitivity while enhancing aesthetics and restoring masticatory function. Treatment planning is related to the age of the patient, the type and severity of the disorder, and the oral health of the patient. Early diagnosis, preventive care and timely treatment are important to improve oral health in children with AI.
