Background: Molar incisor hypomineralization is one of the major developmental defects enamel affecting or more first permanent molars and often associated with involvement. MIH thought to be idiopathic, but etiology not yet known. Objective: The aim this study was determine relationship between postnatal factors, namely disease suffered by children aged 0-3 years in group 6-15 years. Methods: ...

Molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH) is a congenital disease which is increasing in prevalence. It affects permanent first molars and, often to a lesser degree, permanent incisors with variable severity. The etiology is unknown, but various risk factors have been put forward. Differential diagnosis is mandatory not to confound MIH with other diseases such as amelogenesis imperfecta or fluoros...

Aims. To ascertain whether deproteinization pretreatment of molar-incisor hypomineralization (MIH) enamel affects resin sealant infiltration. Design. Thirty one extracted MIH teeth were divided into three sections and randomly allocated into the Control (etch and FS), Treatment 1 (5% NaOCl, etched and fissure sealed), and Treatment 2 (5% NaOCl and fissure sealed with no etch) groups. Two hundre...

OBJECTIVE To determine the prevalence of molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH) and any associated causes of MIH in children from two rural divisions in Kenya. DESIGN Prospective cross-sectional study. SETTING Seventeen primary schools in Matungulu and Kangundo divisions of Machakos district in Kenya. SUBJECTS All six to eight year-olds in the seventeen primary schools. RESULTS A total ...

BACKGROUND AND AIM: Regarding the prevalence of molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH) among students and different populations and continuation of related problems, it seems necessary to assess the prevalence among students in Kerman, Iran. The aim of this study was to review the prevalence of MIH and its relation to the sex of 7-12-year-old students in Kerman during 2015-2016.METHODS: In this...

Anomalies in amelogenesis may be due to developmental defects or abnormalities in different components of developing teeth and can affect dental development. We compared dental development in a group of children with molar-incisor hypomineralization (MIH) with that in age- and sex-matched controls. Dental age was determined using panoramic radiographs of 105 children (59 girls, 46 boys) aged 7-...

Defects similar to Molar-Incisor Hypomineralization (MIH) in second primary molars can be found in the literature, being recently named Deciduous Molar Hypomineralization (DMH). Researchers have stated that the presence of DMH in primary dentition represents a risk for MIH in permanent teeth. The explanation for this association is probably related to the etiological factors. Aim: To investigat...
