Summary

This clinical study aimed to compare the effectiveness of two minimally invasive approaches for masking molar-incisor hypomineralization (MIH) opacities and to evaluate esthetic perceptions of children and their parents. Participants with MIH-affected incisors received either resin infiltration or etch-bleach-seal treatment. Esthetic outcomes and satisfaction levels were assessed using standardized scales.

Conditions

  • Molar Incisor Hypomineralisation
  • Enamel Hypomineralization
  • Tooth Discoloration

Interventions

OTHER

Resin infiltration

A minimally invasive dental procedure used to mask enamel opacities associated with molar incisor hypomineralization. The technique involves etching the enamel surface, drying with ethanol, and applying a low-viscosity resin infiltrant (Icon®, DMG), followed by light curing and polishing in a single clinical session.

OTHER

Etch Bleach Seal Technique

A minimally invasive dental procedure used to improve the appearance of enamel opacities associated with molar incisor hypomineralization. The technique includes phosphoric acid etching, application of sodium hypochlorite for bleaching, and sealing with a resin-based sealant, followed by light curing and polishing in a single clinical session.
