Satisfaction After Restoring Aesthetics and Function in a Child with Amelogenesis Imperfecta: A Case Report

Amelogenezis imperfekta (Aİ) süt ve daimi dentisyonda diş minesinin formasyonunu tahrip eden kalıtsal bir hastalıktır. Aİ'li hastaların tedavisi hem hekim hem de hasta açısından zorlu bir süreçtir. Bu olgu sunumunda Aİ tanısı konulan altı yaşında bir kız hastanın tedavi süreci sunulmaktadır. Tedavi planlamasında, hastanın yaşı göz önüne alınarak ve büyüme ve gelişimi etkilemekten kaçınmak amacıyla hastaya hareketli protezler yapılmasına karar verilmiştir. Konvansiyonel tam protezler yapılarak, vertikal boyut artırılmış, istenilen estetik ve fonksiyon kazanılmıştır. Ayrıca protetik tedaviden memnuniyet, bir anket yardımıyla değerlendirilmiştir. Hasta ve ebeveyn memnuniyetinin yüksek düzeyde olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Aİ'li hastalarda tedavi planlamasında; hastanın yaşı, sosyo-ekonomik durumu, hastalığın şiddeti ve tipi, planlama yapıldığı süreçteki intraoral durum ve en önemlisi hasta kooperasyonu gibi pek çok faktör rol oynamaktadır.

Amelogenezis İmperfektalı Çocuk Hastada Estetik ve Fonksiyonun Sağlanması ile Elde Edilen Memnuniyet: Olgu Sunumu

Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) is a hereditary disorder that disrupts the formation of enamel in both primary and permanent dentition. Management of AI is a challenge for the patient and the clinician. This case report presents the management of AI in a sixyear-old female patient. Considering the patient's age, we decided to make removable dentures in order to avoid growth and development problems. Conventional complete dentures were made, vertical dimension was increased, and the desired aesthetics and function were gained. Additionally, satisfaction with prosthodontic rehabilitation was evaluated using a questionnaire. A high level of patient and parent satisfaction was obtained. Treatment planning for patients with AI is related to many factors including the age and socioeconomic status of the patient, the type and severity of the disorder, the intraoral situation at the time the treatment is planned and most importantly, cooperation of the patient plays a major role.
