Molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH) is one of the developmental enamel defect which is characterized by demarcated, qualitative defects of enamel of systemic origin affecting one to four first permanent molars (FPMs) and frequently associated with incisor involvement. Similar lesions can be seen in second primary molars and their presence has been reported as a predictive factor for developing MIH. Although the exact etiology of MIH is unclear, it is likely to be multi-factorial. Possible etiological factors of MIH are systemic conditions as pneumonia, upper respiratory tract infections, asthma, otitis media, hypoxia, high fever, hypocalcemia and exposure to antibiotics as amoxicillin. The prevalence of MIH has been reported from several studies to be between 2.8 and 40.2 %, with the mean approximately 15 %. MIH is considered as a common clinical problem by several epidemiological studies from many countries. Clinical presentation of MIH can include white, creamy and yellow-brown opacities, irregular areas of post eruptive breakdown, which can be mistaken diagnosed as hypoplasia or atypical caries. The condition is usually associated with a high disease burden, leading to pain, infection and tooth loss. Teeth affected by MIH are at high risk of rapid caries development and progression, rapid wear and enamel breakdown. Severely affected enamel disintegrates under masticatory forces resulting in post-eruptive breakdown (PEB), which is also a characteristic feature of MIH-affected teeth. These teeth require treatment, ranging from prevention to restorations and extractions, often under general anesthesia. A multidisciplinary cooperation among clinicians is often required, particularly for extractions of first permanent molars, when orthodontic consequences need to be considered. To evaluate the effect of this condition, questionnaires of dentists and dental professionals have been carried out in various countries, including those in Europe, Australia and New Zealand, Malaysia, Iraq, Iran and Saudi Arabian. These have generally revealed that MIH has been frequently encountered in clinical practice, particularly by dental professionals who treat children and that there is a need for further training for the condition. To date dental clinicians' concerns regarding MIH have not been extensively assessed in Egypt.
It is a randomized clinical trial in which two different types of full coverage restoration in used to restore hypomineralized first permanent molar and protect the remaining tooth structure in patients with molar incisor hypomineralization ,one group is covered with CAD-CAM milled poly methyl methacrylate crowns and the other group is covered with cast metal copings (CAC) using nickel chromium alloy and there will be a nine months follow up.
The aim of this study is to assess the prevalence of molar incisor hypo mineralization among children who have been treated with asthmatic drugs during the first three years of life.
To compare responses to electrical pulp test (EPT) and cold test among molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH)-effected and not MIH-effected carious teeth before and after administration of local anesthesia for caries removal.

Molar Incisor Hypomineralization (MIH) is a change in the formation of dental enamel of systemic origin that affects at least one of the first four permanent molars and usually affects incisors. During the eruption, the affected surfaces tend to fracture, exposing the dentin, which causes excessive sensitivity in addition to making the region very susceptible to the appearance of carious lesions. The objective of this research will be to evaluate the clinical effect of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) in permanent teeth with severe and sensitive MIH. The methodology will be based on the selection of patients from 6 to 12 years of age with permanent molar teeth, randomly divided in two groups. The selected teeth should have MIH on the occlusal surface, indicated for clinical restorative treatment. In Group 1, aPDT will be applied for the treatment of infected dentin. Afterwards, the teeth will be restored with high viscosity glass ionomer cement. In Group 2, the removal of the softened dentin around the side walls of the cavity with sharp dentine curettes and posterior restoration with high viscosity glass ionomer cement will be carried out. All patients will have clinical and radiographic follow-up with a time interval of 6 and 12 months. The data obtained will be submitted to descriptive statistical analysis to evaluate the association of categorical variables. Chi-square test and Fisher's Exact test will be used, and to analyze the correlation between the continuous variables, Pearson correlation test will be applied. For the analysis of dentin density in the scanned radiographic images and the microbiological results for colony forming units, ANOVA and Kruskal-Wallis will be applied.
This trial will compare the application of Glass Ionomer Cement (GIC) sealant with no-intervention for the most clinically- and cost-effective strategy for managing MIH molars without post-eruptive breakdown, in a school setting, using low-technology and child-friendly dental techniques. Methods/Design: This two-arm, parallel group, patient-randomized controlled, superiority trial will have treatment provided in schools. Schoolchildren (age 6-9), presenting at least one MIH molar (n molars = 195,) will have random allocation to treatment with or without the application of a GIC sealant (GC Fuji TRIAGE®, GC Europe, Leuven, Belgium). Baseline measures and outcome data will be assessed through participant report and clinical examination. The primary outcome is the presence of post-eruptive fracture and development of caries lesions. Secondary outcomes are: (1) self-reported dental hypersensitivity; (2) oral health-related-quality of life, reported by children; (3) plaque index, (4) gingival health, (5) caries status (according to ICCMS scores) in primary and permanent teeth; (6) the incremental cost-effectiveness. A trained and calibrated examiner will evaluate the treated teeth every six months post treatment for a period of 36 months. Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression tests will be used to investigate the primary outcome. The Logistic Regression and Poisson Regression Analysis will be used to analyze the secondary outcomes (α=5%).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate and compare the clinical performance of Silver diamine Fluoride+Potassium Iodide (SDF+KI) and Silver-Modified Atraumatic Restorative Technique (SMART/SDF+KI+GIC) on molars with MIH
The objective of this research was to evaluate the clinical effect of photodynamic therapy on dentin infected by caries lesion in permanent teeth with Molar Incisor Hypomineralization (MIH). The study was composed of Groups (1 and 2). The methodology was based on the selection of patients from 6 to 12 years of age with permanent molar teeth, randomly divided. The selected teeth had deep dentin caries lesions on the occlusal surface, and sensitivity, indicated for clinical restorative treatment. Photodynamic therapy was applied with the use of low-intensity laser in permanent teeth selected for the treatment of infected dentin in G1. In this group, antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) and atraumatic restorative treatment (ART) were made. In G2, only ART was performed. The teeth were restored with high viscosity glass ionomer cement. All patients had clinical and radiographic follow-up with a time interval of 6 and 12 months. Data were submitted to descriptive statistical analysis. For the evaluation of the association of categorical variables like age and gender, the Chi-square test and Fisher's exact test were used. To analyze the correlation between the continuous variables, the Pearson correlation test was applied. ANOVA and Kruskal-Wallis were applied for the analysis of dentin density in the radiographic images scanned and the microbiological results for colony forming units.
