Understanding Molar Incisor Hypomineralisation

By Himani Gupta

- Default Title
Description
Molar Incisor Hypomineralisation (MIH) is a developmental condition affecting enamel on first permanent molars and sometimes incisors. Teeth with MIH show discoloration-usually yellow or brown-and are prone to chipping and decay, causing increased sensitivity and discomfort. The causes of MIH are not fully understood but may involve factors like genetic predisposition, prenatal complications, childhood illnesses, or environmental toxins disrupting enamel formation. Management involves early diagnosis and preventive care, such as fluoride applications and sealants, to strengthen enamel and reduce sensitivity. In severe cases, restorative treatments like composite fillings or crowns may be needed to preserve tooth integrity. MIH poses challenges for both dental care and quality of life, as it may deter children from seeking dental treatment due to pain. Further research and awareness are crucial to better understand and treat MIH effectively, minimizing discomfort and long-term dental issues for affected individuals.
