Autosomal recessive amelogenesis imperfecta of the pigmented hypomaturation type is characterized by enamel of normal thickness that is hypomineralized and has a mottled appearance. The slightly soft enamel detaches easily from the dentin, and radiographs show a lack of contrast between enamel and dentin (Witkop, 1989). [from OMIM]
