title: Interdisciplinary treatment for a patient with open-bite malocclusion and amelogenesis imperfecta.
abstract: Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) comprises a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of conditions that affect the dental enamel, occasionally in conjunction with other dental, oral, and extraoral tissues. The aim of this case report is to describe an interdisciplinary treatment of hypoplastic AI associated with a severe open bite. The treatment consisted of surgical, orthodontic, periodontal, prosthetic and restorative management, establishing good chewing function, dental esthetics and facial harmony.
