- Congenital Abnormality
Dentinogenesis imperfecta is a disorder of tooth development. This condition causes the teeth to be discolored (most often a blue-gray or yellow-brown color) and translucent. Teeth are also weaker than normal, making them prone to rapid wear, breakage, and loss. These problems can affect both primary (baby) teeth and permanent teeth.\n\nResearchers have described three types of dentinogenesis imperfecta with similar dental abnormalities. Type I occurs in people who have osteogenesis imperfecta, a genetic condition in which bones are brittle and easily broken. Dentinogenesis imperfecta type II and type III usually occur in people without other inherited disorders. A few older individuals with type II have had progressive high-frequency hearing loss in addition to dental abnormalities, but it is not known whether this hearing loss is related to dentinogenesis imperfecta.\n\nSome researchers believe that dentinogenesis imperfecta type II and type III, along with a condition called dentin dysplasia type II, are actually forms of a single disorder. The signs and symptoms of dentin dysplasia type II are very similar to those of dentinogenesis imperfecta. However, dentin dysplasia type II affects the primary teeth much more than the permanent teeth.

- Disease or Syndrome
Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) involves abnormalities of the skin (hypomelanotic macules, confetti skin lesions, facial angiofibromas, shagreen patches, fibrous cephalic plaques, ungual fibromas); brain (subependymal nodules, cortical tubers, and subependymal giant cell astrocytomas [SEGAs], seizures, intellectual disability / developmental delay, psychiatric illness); kidney (angiomyolipomas, cysts, renal cell carcinomas); heart (rhabdomyomas, arrhythmias); and lungs (lymphangioleiomyomatosis [LAM], multifocal micronodular pneumonocyte hyperplasia). Central nervous system tumors are the leading cause of morbidity and mortality; renal disease is the second leading cause of early death.

Amelogenesis imperfecta type 1A- MedGen UID:
- 859840
- •Concept ID:
- C4011403
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
Hypoplastic amelogenesis imperfecta IA is characterized by enamel that may not develop to normal thickness. The enamel may have pits on the labial or buccal surfaces that are often arranged in rows and columns (see Witkop, 1989).
Amelogenesis imperfecta type 1H- MedGen UID:
- 863994
- •Concept ID:
- C4015557
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
Amelogenesis imperfecta type IH is characterized by hypoplastic and hypomineralized tooth enamel that may be rough, pitted, and/or discolored (Wang et al., 2014 and Poulter et al., 2014).
Amelogenesis imperfecta type 1F- MedGen UID:
- 898597
- •Concept ID:
- C4225394
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
Amelogenesis imperfecta type IF (AI1F) is characterized by hypoplastic enamel of the primary and secondary dentition. The teeth may appear rough and discolored, and the tooth enamel may be absent, pitted, or of varying thickness (Poulter et al. (2014)).
