Abstract

Amelogenesis imperfecta is a hereditary anomaly that affects enamel formation and is observed in primary and
permanent dentition. Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) is an inherited disease characterized by a marked defect in the
enamel structure of primary and permanent teeth without any systemic disease. In many cases, it shows an autosomal
dominant, autosomal recessive or X-linked genetic transmission. Developmental enamel defects; they are defects that can
be hereditary or acquired as a result of the cessation of development during the development of enamel tissue. Defects
can cause problems such as sensitivity, aesthetic problems and caries susceptibility. Therefore, it has been stated that
defects can negatively affect the quality of life. Developmental enamel defects, early diagnosis and preventive treatments
are primarily conditions that require a multidisciplinary approach. The main concerns of patients with AI are caries
tendency, poor aesthetics and widespread sensitivity. Treatment of these defects is extremely important in terms of
aesthetics, function and phonation, as well as the correction of psychosocial problems associated with them. Many factors
such as age, socioeconomic status, type and severity of the disease, and oral condition at the time of treatment are
effective in the treatment planning of AI patients. In this study, information about AI was given by reviewing the
literature, and a patient with amelogenesis imperfecta who applied to our clinic in adulthood was followed up by
performing treatment procedures aimed at eliminating aesthetic, function, phonation and psychosocial problems, as well
as increasing the psychosocial quality of life of the case.
