Tooth color and enamel loss in children with MIH
Part of Genetic & congenital, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child must be 5 to 8 years old.
- Your child's first permanent molars (the back teeth that come in around age 6) must be fully in place and touching the opposite teeth.
- Your child must be generally healthy.
- Your child must not have had any dental treatment on those affected molars yet.
- Your child must not have other tooth problems, like wear from grinding or other developmental defects.

This study looks at whether the color of spotted first permanent molars (caused by MIH) is linked to tooth sensitivity. It compares children with MIH to children with healthy teeth to understand the connection between color and pain.
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 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 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.
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 tests a new toothpaste containing nano-hydroxyapatite, a substance that mimics natural enamel, to see if it can help reduce sensitivity and improve the color of teeth affected by Molar-Incisor Hypomineralization (MIH)—a condition where first molars and sometimes front teeth have white, yellow, or brown spots. It is for children aged 6 to 12 who have these spots on at least one permanent molar or baby molar.
