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 how common enamel defects are in second baby molars and whether they are linked to similar defects in permanent teeth. It helps dentists understand these conditions better.
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 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 study tests whether a glass ionomer sealant can protect molars with molar-incisor hypomineralization (MIH), a type of enamel weakness, by sealing the biting surface. It may help reduce damage in affected teeth when children still have healthy surfaces that can be sealed.
This study looks at how common and severe a certain type of enamel problem (called molar incisor hypomineralization) is in children ages 8 to 14 who have type 1 diabetes. Participation helps researchers understand if there is a link between diabetes and this tooth condition.
This study looks at certain signs of gum inflammation in children who have a condition called MIH (weak or discolored enamel on molars and front teeth) and need gum treatment. It aims to see if their gum health markers differ from children without MIH who also need gum treatment.
