The relationship between molar incisor hypomineralization, dental caries, socioeconomic factors, and polymorphisms in the vitamin D receptor gene: a population-based study

TL;DR: The findings suggested that more severe cases with incisors affected by MIH could be associated with polymorphism in VDR gene, and children with MIH presented a significant higher prevalence of dental caries than children without MIH.

Early-life events and developmental defects of enamel in the primary dentition

TL;DR: Early-life events may cause developmental defects of enamel (DDE) in the primary teeth of children aged 24-36 months and their association with early- life events is investigated.
