Abstract

Dentinogenesis Imperfecta is an autosomal dominant dental development anomaly that affects both the primary and permanent dentition.

The complications arising from Dentinogenesis Imperfecta are complex to treat and imply a great challenge to the dentist. That is why it is important to recognize the main characteristics of the disease so as to give the patient the best practice possible. A case is reported of an eightyear-old boy having a family history with similar expression of the disease. The child consulted for an esthetic reason, wanting to improve the appearance of his anterior teeth. It is described both clinical and radiographic diagnostic as well as the course of treatment and prognosis.
