摘要
Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) is a hereditary disorder that causes developmental alterations in the structure of enamel. It represents a group of heterogenous conditions. AI has several names such as hereditary enamel dysplasia, hereditary brown enamel, hereditary brown opalescent teeth. In this disorder, the enamel is hypoplastic, hypomineralized or both. It may show autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive, sex-linked or sporadic pattern. It is necessary to diagnose this disorder and provide durable, functional and esthetic management of these patients to improve the quality of their lives. We present a case of AI affecting the dentition of an 18-year-old girl.
