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.

Amelogenesis Imperfecta: A hereditary disorder characterised by improper enamel formation, resulting in teeth that are discoloured, sensitive, and structurally deficient.

Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) comprises a heterogeneous group of inherited disorders that affect the formation and quality of dental enamel.

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 ...

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

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 ...
