Enamel Hypoplasia – A Case Presentation of A Disease Affecting Enamel of Teeth
Enamel hypoplasia is one manifestation of developmental enamel defects, which have been attributed to an increased likelihood of dental caries in the teeth that have become affected. The intent of this study was to employ Dean's fluorosis index to estimate the prevalence of enamel hypoplasia. A total of 100 individuals who had dental exams between the ages of 10 and 40 constituted the study sample. In accordance with the study's outcomes, the total number of individuals with mild fluorosis was most significant (58), then moderate (24), very mild (13) and least severe (5).
