Dental enamel defect study using tooth photos and measurements
Part of Genetic & congenital, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study compares different types of enamel problems by taking detailed pictures of your front teeth. It may help researchers better tell these enamel conditions apart and improve future diagnosis and care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be between 8 and 55 years old
- Have a specific enamel issue that starts before the teeth come in: AIH, dental fluorosis, or MIH
- For minors: a parent/guardian must agree (no objections)
- You should not be pregnant or breastfeeding
- You should not have taken radiation or chemotherapy that affected the mouth and gums

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at whether children with a common tooth enamel problem in baby molars (called hypomineralized second primary molars) also have the same problem in permanent teeth (molar-incisor hypomineralization). It may help find early signs so children can get better dental care.
This study measures how a child's daily life and happiness are affected by a condition called Amelogenesis Imperfecta, which affects tooth enamel. It focuses on children who need veneers for their front teeth, and the results will help dentists improve care.
This study tests a new treatment for children with a tooth condition called MIH that causes sensitive and weakened molars. It combines a special light therapy and a new filling material to help reduce pain and make the fillings last longer.
This study looks at how the color of white, yellow, or brown spots on children's first permanent molars (the back teeth that come in around age 6) relates to the breakdown of the enamel (the outer layer). It aims to help dentists better identify and treat this condition early.
This trial tests a dental treatment called resin infiltration, which is a liquid that is applied to the white or discolored spots on permanent front teeth caused by a condition called molar-incisor hypomineralization. The treatment aims to improve the appearance of these spots and strengthen the enamel without needing drilling or fillings.
This trial tests two treatments for sensitive teeth that have a condition called molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH), which causes weak enamel and pain. It aims to see if a special varnish or gel can reduce the sensitivity and improve comfort.
