AbstractObjectivesThis article will provide an overview of the clinical presentation, treatment considerations, and sequencing of treatment for a patient with amelogenesis imperfecta (AI). The different types and subgroups of AI will be described, focusing on Type I hypoplastic form of the condition.OverviewPatients with AI all have abnormal enamel formation but some may also present with vertical dysgnathia, anterior open bite, and posterior crossbite. A case report demonstrates the sequencing and implementation of necessary orthodontic and prosthodontic treatments, beginning in the mixed dentition and ending with esthetic and functional permanent restorations in the permanent dentition.Clinical SignificanceAI is a disorder of tooth enamel formation but may also affect the face, jaw relationship, occlusion, compromised esthetics, and can potentially cause psychological damage due to the appearance of the teeth. Treatment of AI should be initiated at a young age.
