Abstract :
Amelogenesis Imperfecta encompasses a
range of diverse conditions characterized by structural
defects in tooth enamel development, featuring intricate
inheritance patterns. These conditions can manifest in
both primary and permanent dentition and may be
inherited through autosomal dominant, autosomal
recessive, or X-linked modes of transmission. The
treatment plan involves considering various factors
including the patient's age, the nature and extent of the
disorder, intraoral factors, and the patient's
socioeconomic status. In this report, we present cases of
two siblings diagnosed with hypoplastic amelogenesis
imperfecta through clinical and radiographic
assessments.
