dentinogenesis imperfecta

Whether this association is present is a major criterion in the classification of dentinogenesis imperfecta into three types.

Such patients suffer dental anomalies including type III dentinogenesis imperfecta.

Dentinogenesis imperfecta (hereditary Opalescent Dentin) is a genetic disorder of tooth development.

Other reasons include tooth developmental defects caused by severe malnutrition, genetic defects such as dentinogenesis imperfecta, trauma, or drug use.

In the deciduous dentition, coronal dentin dysplasia bears a resemblance to Dentinogenesis Imperfecta type II.

Mutations in the DSPP gene have been identified in people with type II and type III dentinogenesis imperfecta.

Types of dentinogenesis imperfecta with similar dental formalities usually an autosomal dominant trait with variable expressivity but can be recessive if the associated osteogenesis imperfecta is of recessive type.

IA and IB are defined to be distinguished by the absence/presence of dentinogenesis imperfecta (characterized by opalescent teeth; absent in IA, present in IB).

Due to the weakened condition of the teeth, many common cosmetic procedures such as braces and bridges are inappropriate for patients with Dentinogenesis imperfecta and are likely to cause even more damage than the situation they were intended to correct.

Similar to Type I, Type IV can be further subclassified into types IVA and IVB characterized by absence (IVA) or presence (IVB) of dentinogenesis imperfecta.

Brandywine Type Dentinogenesis Imperfecta Dentinogenesis Imperfecta, Shields Type None Dentinogenesis imperfecta type III (DGI-III) is one of five distinct, hereditary disorders of dentin development affecting the teeth.
