STRESZCZENIE
Molar-incisor hypomineralization is a qualitative deviation that compromises the enamel hardness, and thus predisposes the affected tooth to mechanical breakdown that may endamage the pulp and the longevity of the impacted teeth. Besides the functional and aesthetic problems brought on by the structural involvement of the enamel, there are also behavioural and psychological consequences for patients. Since their childhood, the patients’ behaviour should be closely monitored to effectively manage the situation before it worsens.
Various potential approaches to treat MIH-affected teeth exist, few are yet supported
by good-quality clinical research data. It
has become increasingly apparent that the
conservation of tooth structure is a significant
factor in determining the long-term prognosis
of any restorative procedure. Thanks to the
progress in bonding techniques, porcelain
aesthetics, and mechanical properties, different
alternatives are now possible in order to treat
affected teeth while being the least invasive. The
present clinical case report shows an aesthetic
rehabilitation of posterior teeth with molarincisor
hypomineralization using an overlay and
a veneerlay.
