SIOI Policy on Molar Incisor Hypomineralisation.

This Policy is based on a comprehensive review of the highest-quality scientific literature available over the past 20 years, including systematic reviews, meta-analyses, evidencebased guidelines, expert recommendations, manuscripts and best clinical practices. A bibliographic search was conducted using PubMed®/MEDLINE, using keywords such as: molarincisor hypomineralisation, molar hypomineralisation, enamel defect, hypomineralised molars, hypomineralised second primary molars, dental developmental defects. Search filters included: publication date (since 2001), language (English), fulltext availability, study type (systematic review, meta-analysis, clinical trial, evidence-based guidelines, manuscripts), species (humans), and age (child: birth-18 years). Additional references were obtained through citation tracking of key publications. Final recommendations were developed by combining the best available scientific evidence with clinical expertise and consensus from a multidisciplinary panel of paediatric dental specialists.
