Enamel Hypomineralisation Care for a Lifetime of Healthy Teeth
It is a relatively common condition that varies in clinical severity and can result in early loss of the first permanent molars. Teeth most commonly affected are the first permanent molars (six-year-old molars) and the permanent incisors. This condition is therefore referred to as "Molar Incisor Hypomineralisation".
Although the cause is unclear Enamel Hypomineralisation has been seen in children born preterm and in those with poor general health in the first 3 years. In addition to a number of systemic conditions, low birth weight, toxins from breast feeding and common childhood illnesses such as upper respiratory tract infections, recurrent ear infections, asthma, tonsillitis in the first 3 years have all been linked to Enamel Hypomineralisation.
Defending Children's Smiles
Early diagnosis and management are important to ensure the best long-term outcome. If children appear to have this condition on their baby molars (usually detected between 2-5 years of age) there is an increased likelihood of Enamel Hypomineralisation also affecting the first permanent molars and permanent incisor teeth.
Treatment depends on the severity and the teeth that are affected.
Permanent molars affected by Enamel Hypomineralisation require early intervention.
