INTRODUCTION: Dentinogenesis imperfecta (DI) is a hereditary dentin development disorder that affects both primary and permanent dentitions. The DI characteristics are discolored and translucent teeth ranging from gray to brownish-blue or amber. The enamel may split readily from the dentin when subjected to occlusal stress. Radiographically there are evident of cervical constrictions, short root and pulp chambers, and the root canals are smaller than normal or completely obliterated. The dental treatment choice can be decided on a case-by case‑basis, considering the degree of dental tissue loss, and child age and cooperation. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this case report was to describe the early dental treatment performed in a child affected by DI type II. CASE REPORT: The treatment involved basic preventive procedures. Primary molars were worn to such an extent that the remained tooth structure was covered with composite resin to protect the exposed dentin. Resin-based sealant was applied in all first permanent molars. Posterior cross bite was treated with the expansion of the upper arch. CONCLUSION: The early treatment restored the patient´s vertical dimension resulting in acceptable esthetics and function for the permanent teeth to complete their eruption.

Dentinogenesis Imperfecta type II (DI2), also known as hereditary opalescent dentin, is one of the most common genetic disorders affecting the structure of dentin, not related with osteogenesis imperfecta, which involves both primary and permanent dentitions. The purpose of this article is to perform a scoping review of the published peer-reviewed literature (1986–2017) on DI2 management in children and to outline the most relevant clinical findings extracted from this review. Forty four articles were included in the present scoping review. According to the extracted data, the following are the most important tasks to be performed in clinical pediatric dentistry: to re-establish the oral mastication, esthetics, and speech, and the development of vertical growth of alveolar bone and facial muscles; to reduce the tendency to develop caries, periapical lesions and pain; to preserve vitality, form, and size of the dentition; to avoid interfering with the eruption process of permanent teeth; to decrease the risk of tooth fractures and occlusion disturbances; to return the facial profile to a more normal appearance; and to prevent or treat possible temporomandibular joint problems. Therefore, Pediatric Dentists should bear in mind that early diagnosis and treatment, together a long-term follow-up of DI2 in children, continue to be the best approaches for achieving enhanced patient psychological well-being and, in consequence, their quality of life.

Dentinogenesis imperfecta (DI) is a hereditary developmental disorder of dentin formation that can occur associated with osteogenesis imperfecta (type I), isolated (type II), or in a specific isolated resident group of Brandywine, in southern Maryland (type III). This work aims at reporting a clinical case of DI type II in childhood with a 34-year follow up. The child at issue was taken to the dental health service at a very young age, which favored an appropriate treatment, avoiding complications, and portending a favorable long-term prognosis, besides safeguarding the patient physical and mental well-being. The clinical aspects of this condition are teeth with short crowns and gray-brown coloration, and an altered consistency of affected dental elements. Radiographically, the teeth present bulbous crowns, cervical constriction, thin roots, and early obliteration of the root canal and pulp chambers due to excessive dentin production. Rehabilitation treatment included the use of stainless-steel crowns for reconstructing deciduous molars and composite resin restorations on the anterior deciduous teeth. As for permanent dentition, it consisted of aesthetic-functional rehabilitation using metal crowns on the first molars and ceramic crowns and facets on the anterior teeth. Endodontic, prosthetic and restorative treatment was performed on other posterior teeth. Preventive measures were instituted. DI may cause serious changes in dentin structure, affecting function and aesthetics in both dentitions. The sooner it is administered, the more promising the multidisciplinary dental treatment will be in promoting health and minimizing damage to affected individuals.

Delayed Eruption

Mesiodens is the most common supernumerary tooth and is present in the midline between the two central incisors. It occurs mostly due to hyperactivity of the dental lamina. They are usually small, with a cone shaped crown and a short root, may be single or paired, erupted or impacted and occasionally even be inverted. Presence of more than one mesiodens is termed as mesiodentes. Presence of mesiodens may cause impaction or delayed eruption of permanent teeth, malocclusion leading to disturbance in chewing, swallowing and speech, root resorption of the adjacent teeth, impaired dentofacial aesthetics, and sometimes cyst formation. The erupted mesiodens can be easily diagnosed clinically, and the unerupted ones are best diagnosed by clinical and radiological evaluation. Although mesiodens is the most common supernumerary teeth, presence of double mesiodens is uncommon. In this paper we describe a case of palatally erupted double mesiodens and its management in a 20year old girl.

Composite Bridge

Background: Dental hard tissue loss renders a tooth restorable or unrestorable. The treatment ranges from endodontic treatment to dental implant. Sometimes patients in need to restore their oral function and esthetics cannot afford those treatments due to a limited financial capability and time availability. Purpose: This case report presents a minimal invasive, single appointment, quick, and affordable alternative treatment to restore morphology, function, and esthetics. Case: A 40 years old male patient suffered enamel-dentin-pulp fracture on central incisor due to trauma. Eventhough the fracture involves pulp exposure, it remains vital. The tooth lacks sound tooth structure for ferrule effect. The patient wished to retain the tooth. Therefore, initial treatment plan comprised of reestablishing ferrule effect, root canal treatment, endodontic post, and porcelain crown. Nevertheless, due to financial and time constraint, patient refused the suggested treatment plan; thus, direct resin composite bridge was suggested. Case Management: Isolation is followed by calcium hydroxide capping of the exposed pulp. After application of etch and adhesive bonding to tooth 11, 21, and 22, nanohybrid resin composite was layered to fabricate the direct composite bridge, bonded to 11 and 21, with the following layering sequence: 1) palatal; 2) proximal; 3) body; 4) labial. The procedure took 1 hour to restore tooth morphology, function, and esthetics. Upon five years follow-up, the tooth remains asymptomatic. The direct resin composite bridge has been serving well. Conclusion: Direct resin composite bridges can be an affordable, quick, and minimal invasive treatment modality resulting in satisfactory esthetics, function, and longevity.

Abstract Aim The aim of this report is to describe the management of a 16-year-old patient with oligodontia including six permanent teeth. Background Oligodontia is agenesis of six teeth or more, excluding third molars. The etiology of congenital absence of teeth is believed to be involved in heredity or developmental anomalies. It can be isolated or as part of a syndrome. There are a number of options available to restore space generated by missing teeth. Dental treatment can vary depending on the severity of the disease and generally requires a multidisciplinary approach. Treatment options include orthodontic therapy, implants, adhesive techniques, and removable prostheses. Report A 16-year-old male patient with oligodontia affecting six permanent teeth received conservative care that met his and his parent's expectations. The existing primary teeth were restored to resemble permanent teeth in order to achieve a favorable esthetic result using direct composite resin. The restorative treatment was provided for the psychosocial comfort of the young patient. The loss of teeth in young patients can cause esthetic, functional, and psychological problems particularly if the teeth of the anterior region are involved. Summary Adhesive techniques and new restorative materials represent current options in the management of the dental rehabilitation of young patients with oligodontia.

Summary: Introduction: Dentinogenesis imperfecta (DI) is an inherited dental diaseasein which dental crowns are affected. DI originates by defects on the histo-differenciation stage ofodontogenesis, constituting a localized mesodermal dysplasia characterized by an expressedalteration of dentin proteins. There are three types of dentinogenesis imperfecta: Type I(associated with osteogenesis imperfecta OI), type II (no associated with OI), and type III(Brandywine’s). Objectives: To determine the type of dentinogenesis imprefecta, the family historyand clinical characteristics of a patient within extensive coronal destruction, to establish aprecise diagnosis and a treatment to recover masticatory function. Case Report: A 3-year-old malechild was referred to the clinic with dental hypersensitivity and pain during mastication. Hepresented generalized and extensive crown destructions and discoloration of erupted teeth,abscesses, attrition and loss of vertical dimension. Radiographs showed obliterated pulp chambers,marked cervical constriction and short roots. After clinical and radiographic analysis, familyhistory and consultation with a Geneticist, a relation with OI was not established. In contrast, adiagnosis of dentinogenesis imperfecta type II was confirmed. DE type II is an autosomyc dominanttrait, without gender predilection. Restorative treatment involved stainless steel crowns, requiredextractions, space maintainers and removable partial dentures placement. Conclusion: Early diagnosisand treatment of DI is recommended because the severe destruction of primary dentition that mayaffect child chewing and nutrition. Consultation wit a Geneticist in DI cases is reccomended todiscard any association with OI or other genetic syndromes. Key words: Dentinogenesis imperfecta.Odontogenesis imperfecta.

Canal Morphology

One of the major causes of root canal treatment failure is inability to find and manage an extra canal (s). For achieving successful endodontic therapy, knowledge of root canal morphology and variations in the root is important. The purpose of this case report is to report a rare case of maxillary canine with two root canals. It describes the treatment of a permanent maxillary left canine having an additional canal (Vertucci’s Type II canal configuration) present in a 48 year old female patient. Clinical examination revealed a maxillary canine with a previously initiated access. Radiographic examination revealed a previously initiated access in left maxillary canine, having an additional canal. Keywords: Endodontic treatment, maxillary canine, root canal anatomy, two root canals.
