Abstract

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.
