Amelogenesis Imperfecta and Distal Renal Tubular Acidosis: A Case Report.

UNLABELLED: Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) is an inherited dental condition affecting enamel, which can result in significant tooth discoloration and enamel breakdown, requiring lifelong dental care. Distal renal tubular acidosis (dRTA) is a condition in which the kidneys are unable to acidify the urine to a pH < 5.5 in the presence of systemic metabolic acidosis. Management of AI and dRTA patients requires both medical and dental expertise to achieve long-term successful results. The aim of this paper is to present the dental management of a child with AI and dRTA.
