| Summary: |
Molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH) was
first noted in Sweden in the late 1970s
1
. In
view of the chronological distribution of enamel
defects, Weerheijm
et al
. in 2001 defined MIH
as hypomineralization of systemic origin of
one to four first permanent molars frequently
associated with affected incisors
2
. The exact
nature of the systemic insult is poorly defined,
although an increase in childhood illness has
been implicated. |
