Management of dental anomalies in children
Lesson program
- Clinical treatment protocols:
- Supernumerary teeth
- Missing teeth
- Disorders of size and shape of teeth
- Enamel and dentine anomalies (hypoplasia, hypopmineralisation and amelogenesis imperfecta)
- An interdisciplinary approach in the treatment of dental anomalies in children (involvement of clinicians in other disciplines and the development of long-term treatment planning)
The multidisciplinary approach to the management of common dental anomalies is essential. This presentation will attempt to highlight the broad range of dental defects that occur at different stages of tooth development. This approach will serve as an aid to diagnosis but further, will allow the formulation of a treatment plan that is appropriate for a child at any age when they present with a particular anomaly. Many of the conditions that will be shown are uncommon and management is often anecdotal, however, a sound understanding of the basic pathological mechanisms underlies our ability to treat these conditions. This presentation will focus on the management of supernumerary and missing teeth, disorders of size and shape, enamel and dentine anomalies such as hypoplasia, hypopmineralisation and amelogenesis imperfecta.
