Prevalence of Hypomineralized Second Primary Molars and Its Association with Molar-Incisor Hypomineralization.

The aim for thid study is to detect the prevalence of HSPM and the possible association between MIH and HSPM in a group of Egyptian children aged from 6-12 years. The study will also observe the possible etiological factors that might predispose hypomineralization of primary teeth. To our knowledge, there are no relevant studies that considered the prevalence of HSPM and its possible etiology in Egypt or its association with MIH. So, this study will address this knowledge gap. The possible relationship between HSPM and MIH is highly significant in pediatric dentistry, since the early diagnosis of HSPM as soon as second primary molars erupt makes it possible to initiate more intensive supervision and preventive measures, as these patients are otherwise prone to developing MIH in permanent teeth within a few years.

Prevalence of Hypomineralized Second Primary Molars In A Group of Egyptian Children

Aim of the study: This study aims to detect the prevalence of hypomineralized second primary molars and its association with hypomineralized primary canines in a group of Egyptian children. Furthermore, it also addresses the possible etiological factors that might predispose hypomineralization of deciduous teeth. Rationale: This study tends to fill the knowledge gap about the prevalence of hypomineralized second primary molars as well as its association with hypomineralized primary canines in a group of Egyptian children. In addition to identifying the possible predisposing etiological factors.

Analysis of Treatment Outcomes in Patients Affected by Molar-Incisor Hypomineralization (MIH)

The aim is to long-term evaluate extraction or restoration therapy, of first permanent molars with extensive treatment needs as a result of severe MIH in a national multicenter study concerning dental fear and anxiety, oral health-related quality of life, jaw development, and health economics.
