Chewing function in children with molar-incisor hypomineralization
Part of Genetic & congenital, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study looks at how children with a tooth-enamel condition called molar-incisor hypomineralization (MIH) chew and bite. It aims to see if treating affected teeth helps improve chewing, and includes healthy children for comparison.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child is between 7 and 12 years old
- Your child has molar-incisor hypomineralization (MIH) on both sides of the mouth, affecting their first permanent molars (back teeth)
- These affected teeth need restorative treatment (fillings or similar)
- Your child can cooperate with dental exams and chewing tests
- If your child does NOT have MIH, they may join as a healthy comparison
- A parent or guardian must sign a consent form

This study looks at markers of inflammation in the gums of children with a condition called molar-incisor hypomineralization (MIH), which causes molars and front teeth to have weak enamel. The goal is to see if gum health is affected in these children, which could lead to better dental care.
This study compares two ways to fill permanent back teeth that have soft enamel (molar incisor hypomineralization, or MIH). It aims to find which filling method works better and lasts longer for children aged 7 to 11.
This study compares two ways of numbing the mouth before dental filling in children with a condition called molar-incisor hypomineralization (chalky teeth). One method uses a computer to give the numbing medicine, and the other is the traditional method. The goal is to see if the computer-assisted method is more comfortable and effective for children.
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.
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 compares two ways of removing tooth decay in children with a condition called MIH (which makes enamel weak and spotted). It tests whether selective or non-selective drilling works better for deep cavities, aiming to save the tooth and keep the nerve healthy.
