Diagnosis and treatment of MIH affected anterior teeth and the influence of hypomineralization on quality of life

Molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH) is a frequently encountered dental condition worldwide. It is defined as hypomineralization of systemic origin of one to four permanent first molars frequently associated with affected incisors. Depending on the severity, the condition can be associated with dental complications including rapid wear, enamel loss, increased susceptibility to caries and severe hypersensitivity. Affected anterior teeth primarily show opacities of different shades and extensions, which can disturb the esthetic appearance and impair their quality of life. Therefore, children with MIH should be diagnosed as early as possible and should be offered a treatment that is appropriate to the severity of the condition.

This lecture aims to highlight different aspects related to MIH, from its diagnosis and classification possibilities to treatment approaches of affected anterior teeth as well as the influence of MIH in quality of life.
