Dentinogenesis imperfecta in a six-generation family. A clinical, radiographic and histologic comparison of two branches through three generations.
Dentinogenesis imperfecta type II through 2 branches of a 6-generation family was presented focusing on individual differences in clinical, radiographic and histological appearances. These differences lead to different treatment approaches emphasizing prevention of attrition in order to avoid loss of vertical height and development of periapical lesions.
