The research reveals how targeting the KMT2D gene could help correct oral disorders and prevent craniofacial birth defects.

Amelogenesis imperfecta is caused by mutations in the genes AMELX, ENAM, or MMP20.These genes are responsible for making the proteins needed for normal formation of enamel.

In March, he received the prestigious American Association for Dental, Oral and Craniofacial Research (AADOCR) Joseph Lister ...

Amelogenesis imperfecta is an inherited dental disease that affects one in 14,000 to 16,000 children in the U.S. Those born with amelogenesis imperfecta do not produce functional proteins that are ...

We looked at fossil teeth from hominins (humans and our closest extinct relatives) from the Omo Valley in Ethiopia, where we can see traces of more than two million years of human evolution, as well ...

Weak enamel can make you more susceptible to cavities, but there are steps you can take to protect your teeth. By Knvul Sheikh Having bright, beautiful teeth depends on more than just brushing ...

Amelogenesis imperfecta is primarily caused by mutations in specific genes involved in enamel formation. These mutations can affect the structure, composition, and mineralisation of the enamel. AI ...

Amelogenesis imperfecta is a group of rare genetic developmental conditions characterized by tooth enamel defects and can be associated with hypersensitivity and eruption disturbances in teeth ...
