Abstract

Amelogenesis imperfecta is a developmental disturbance in the structure of the tooth enamel of genetic origin. Though it is a rare hereditary defect, it is not an uncommon entity and is encountered in clinical practice with varying degrees of frequency. Amelogenesis imperfecta, for the most part, is widely considered as a disease, which affects the enamel of all the teeth uniformly. We present here a case of amelogenesis imperfecta in which relative sparing of the maxillary and mandibular anteriors is seen. This report should serve to remind clinicians of the fact that overly simple descriptions of the distribution of the disease are unwarranted, and that it can present inhighly variablepatterns.
