Abstract
Amelogenesis imperfecta and dentinogenesis imperfecta are two rare inherited disorders of tooth structure. Because of their rarity, there are no treatment guidelines so far. Therefore, it is difficult for dentists to decide which individual treatment is best for the patient, as they have to consider the psychosocial impact, function, aesthetics, and structural changes to the tooth structure. This paper attempts to find out what treatment options have been used worldwide and which have worked best through a literature review.
Keywords: aesthetic treatment; amelogenesis imperfecta (agi); dentinogenesis imperfecta (dgi); functional treatment; tooth structure anomalies.
