Dentinogénesis imperfecta Tipo II. Reporte de un caso

Abstract

Between the anomalies dentinarias of structure in mouth cavity we find the imperfect dentinogenesis which is an alteration of development that concerns the dentine. The imperfect dentinogenesis is a hereditary alteration that originates in the stage of histodiferenciacion during the odontogenesis. Two types exist of dentinogenesis imperfect, the type I that is associated with osteogenesis imperfect, in her the chambers are observed wide and the dental roots often small and little developed. The imperfect dentinogenesis type the II is called opalescent hereditary dentine, the patients only suffer anormalies of the dentine without bony disease; the primary dentition is severely affected. Clinical the aspect of the teeth with dentinogenesis imperfect type the It is typical, they show a high degree of amber-based translucency and a variety of colors from the yellow one up to the bluish grey. The treatment is orientated towards the prevention of an excessive loss of enamel and dentine.
