Abstract
Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) -a hereditary heterogenous disorder causing developmental alterations inthe structure of enamel. The Al trait can be transmitted by either autosomal dominant, autosomalrecessive, or X-linked modes of inheritance. Genes implicated in autosomal forms are genes encoding enamel matrix proteins, namely: Enamelin and Ameloblastin, Tuftelin, MMP-20 and Kallikrein –4 [1].It is necessary to diagnose the case and provide durable functional and esthetic management of these patients, where the unaesthetic appearance has a definite negative psychological impact. Wepresent here three case reports of AI that we diagnosed on the basis of clinical and radiographic features along with the complete review.
