Abstract

The management of children with defects of dentin can be challenging from both diagnostic and treatment perspectives. Obtaining the correct diagnosis is based on careful evaluation of the family history, clinical manifestations and radiographic appearance. Therefore, this chapter aims at describing the various types of conditions leading to defects in dentin with emphasis on the importance of establishing a holistic treatment plan that encompasses a stepwise approach to help achieve the short-, medium- and long-term treatment goals of a functional and aesthetic dentition.
