Abstract

METHODOLOGY: Gingival conditions and tooth sensitivity of young patients with amelogenesis imperfecta lack in depth studies. This case-control study aimed to compare (1) the gingival inflammation, the presence of enamel defects, and tooth sensitivity in young patients with and without amelogenesis imperfecta and (2) to investigate if any difference exists between subtypes of amelogenesis imperfecta. We compared forty-two participants with amelogenesis imperfecta with forty-two controls matched for age, gender, and the number of examined sites. Based on interview, clinical examination, and intraoral photography, we collected data on periodontal conditions, enamel defects and the presence of tooth sensitivity. Comparison tests were performed to investigate if any difference existed between cases and controls; and among cases, between the different subtypes of amelogenesis imperfecta. We performed a post-hoc analysis for any significant difference observed. RESULTS: We observed more gingival inflammation, enamel defects and tooth sensitivity among cases (all p<0.05). Participants with hypocalcified amelogenesis imperfecta had more gingival inflammation, enamel defects, and tooth sensitivity than patients with the hypoplastic and hypomature subtypes (all p<0.05). After adjustment for dental plaque, gingival inflammation was associated with the presence of amelogenesis imperfecta (OR (95%CI) = 1.14 (1.05; 1.24). p<0.01). CONCLUSION: Gingival inflammation, enamel defect and tooth sensitivity are more frequently observed among young patients with amelogenesis imperfecta, and more specifically among children with the hypocalcified subtype.

Figure 3 A: Clinical view of a 9 years old, male patient, with hypocalcified AI. Enamel is of normal thickness but is hypocalcified and soft. The patient presents plaque on every visible surface, associated with a severe gingival inflammation (PI=78%; MGI=1.67; MGI≥2=44%). B: same patient with higher magnification. C: Clinical view of a 9 years old, female patient, with hypomature AI. Enamel is of normal thickness, but it is mottled and softer than normal. The patient does not present visible plaque nor gingival inflammation (PI=3%; MGI=0.12; MGI≥2=0%). D: Clinical view of a 5 years old, female patient, with hypoplastic AI. The enamel is thin and pitted. The patient presents a small amount of plaque some in mesial and distal surfaces and a mild gingival inflammation (PI=7%; MGI=0.18; MGI≥2=0%)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
