title: [Multidisciplinary focus on dentinogenesis imperfecta type II. Clinical analysis. Ultrastructural and genetic pathology].
abstract: A review of the more relevant clinical, radiological, histopathological and genetics aspects of Dentinogenesis imperfecta (DI) is presented, together with the description of a family with DI. The complete analysis of the affected and non-affected members showed that the defect can be classified as a DI type II with an autosomal dominant mode of inheritance with complete penetrance and variable expressivity. Also it is necessary to emphasize the importance of a multidisciplinary approach (Pedodontists, Oral Pathologists and geneticists) in the description, diagnosis and treatment of the individuals affected with DI.
