| Summary: | Background: Dental development (DD) determination is required in various clinical and scientific disciplines such as
paediatric dentistry, orthodontics and forensic dentistry. The aim of this research was to investigate the impact of molar-incisor hypomineralization (MIH) in dental development
of Malay children with compared to age and gender matched controls.
Methods: A matched-pair case control study was conducted
on children aged 7 to 13 attending Polyclinic, Kulliyyah of Dentistry, International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM). MIH was determined based on criteria from EAPD seminar, 2003. Dental development was determined using dental development score from Willem’s method on orthopantomogram. Intra and Inter-examiner
reliability was tested with Kappa statistic; Intra and inter examiner reliability were 0.988 and 0.848 respectively. This research was approved by the IIUM Research Ethic Committee ID No: IREC 264.
Results: A total of 24 children (13 girls, 11 boys) compared with 24 control groups, case-matched for gender and age. The mean of DD of MIH children were 9.48±2, while control children were 8.93±2. Chronological age (CA) of children with MIH and the control were 8.89±2 and 8.95±2 respectively. The paired-sample-t-test analysis revealed that there was true mean difference in dental development between children with MIH and control with significancy was p
Conclusion: Dental development in children with MIH is higher compared to control group. These findings have implications to optimize management of dental growth and development in children with MIH. |
