Abstract
Genetics plays a significant role in determining an individual's susceptibility to dental diseases, the response to dental treatments, and the overall prognosis of dental interventions. Here, the authors explore the various genetic factors affecting the prognosis of dental treatments focusing on dental caries, orthodontic treatment, oral cancer, prosthodontic treatment, periodontal disease, developmental disorders, pharmacogenetics, and genetic predisposition to faster wound healing. Understanding the genetic underpinnings of dental health can help personalize treatment plans, predict outcomes, and improve the overall quality of dental care.

Abstract
The dental follicle (DF) plays an indispensable role in tooth eruption by regulating bone remodeling through their influence on osteoblast and osteoclast activity. The process of tooth eruption involves a series of intricate regulatory mechanisms and signaling pathways. Disruption of the parathyroid hormone‑related protein (PTHrP) in the PTHrP‑PTHrP receptor signaling pathway inhibits osteoclast differentiation by DF cells (DFCs), thus resulting in obstructed tooth eruption. Furthermore, parathyroid hormone receptor‑1 mutations are linked to primary tooth eruption failure. Additionally, the Wnt/β‑catenin, TGF‑β, bone morphogenetic protein and Hedgehog signaling pathways have crucial roles in DFC involvement in tooth eruption. DFC signal loss or alteration inhibits osteoclast differentiation, affects osteoblast and cementoblast differentiation, and suppresses DFC proliferation, thus resulting in failed tooth eruptions. Abnormal tooth eruption is also associated with a range of systemic syndromes and genetic diseases, predominantly resulting from pathogenic gene mutations. Among these conditions, the following disorders arise due to genetic mutations that disrupt DFCs and impede proper tooth eruption: Cleidocranial dysplasia associated with Runt‑related gene 2 gene mutations; osteosclerosis caused by CLCN7 gene mutations; mucopolysaccharidosis type VI resulting from arylsulfatase B gene mutations; enamel renal syndrome due to FAM20A gene mutations; and dentin dysplasia caused by mutations in the VPS4B gene. In addition, regional odontodysplasia and multiple calcific hyperplastic DFs are involved in tooth eruption failure; however, they are not related to gene mutations. The specific mechanism for this effect requires further investigation. To the best of our knowledge, previous reviews have not comprehensively summarized the syndromes associated with DF abnormalities manifesting as abnormal tooth eruption. Therefore, the present review aims to consolidate the current knowledge on DFC signaling pathways implicated in abnormal tooth eruption, and their association with disorders of tooth eruption in genetic diseases and syndromes, thereby providing a valuable reference for future related research.

Voinot J, Bedez M. Pretreatments to bonding on enamel and dentin disorders: a systematic review. Evid Based Dent 2024:10.1038/s41432-024-01037-z. [PMID: 39044008 DOI: 10.1038/s41432-024-01037-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/13/2024] [Revised: 07/07/2024] [Accepted: 07/09/2024] [Indexed: 07/25/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION This systematic review focuses on structural anomalies of enamel and dentin such as fluorosis (F), molar-incisor hypomineralization (MIH), amelogenesis imperfecta (AI), dentinogenesis imperfecta (DI), osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), and X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH). These pathologies affect up to 31% of the population, posing challenges in the adhesion of direct restorations. The primary objective of this analysis is to examine the survival rate and/or bonding resistance of direct restorations on tissues affected by enamel and dentin disorders in humans. We aim to provide precise clinical recommendations for dentists to choose the appropriate bonding pretreatment for various enamel and dentin disorders. METHODS We systematically searched the medical literature to identify abstracts of interest indexed between 1993 and May 2024, from 4 databases (PubMed, PMC-PubMed, Web of Science and Cochrane Library). The results are reported following the PRISMA statement. The GRADE approach was used to assess the risk of bias. RESULTS The two authors included 27 studies out of the 600 identified. The data extracted from these studies are highly heterogeneous, and the mentioned bonding protocols are all different. 15 articles pertain to F, 7 to MIH, 5 to AI, and none focus on HSPM, dentin disorders and XLH. We identified 12 pretreatments of enamel or dentin (7 for F, 2 for MIH, and 3 for AI), including 3 strong recommendations. Additional studies are necessary to confirm the effectiveness of certain pretreatments. In developmental enamel defects, the main recommendation we collected is to bond on enamel with an etch-and-rinse technique on F and MIH. Considerations with lower strength of evidence include a deproteinization step on enamel on F, MIH and AI and modifications of the etching parameters on F and AI. The research strategy was registered on the Prospero platform (CRD42023447502).

Evaluation of Ilex guayusa and Piper marginatum Extract Cytotoxicity on Human Dental Pulp Mesenchymal Stem Cells. Dent J (Basel) 2024; 12:189. [PMID: 38920890 PMCID: PMC11202831 DOI: 10.3390/dj12060189] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/29/2024] [Revised: 06/13/2024] [Accepted: 06/18/2024] [Indexed: 06/27/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Amelogenesis imperfecta is a hereditary disorder affecting dental enamel. Among its phenotypes, hypocalcified AI is characterized by mineral deficiency, leading to tissue wear and, consequently, dental sensitivity. Excessive fluoride intake (through drinking water, fluoride supplements, toothpaste, or by ingesting products such as pesticides or insecticides) can lead to a condition known as dental fluorosis, which manifests as stains and teeth discoloration affecting their structure. Our recent studies have shown that extracts from Colombian native plants, Ilex guayusa and Piper marginatum, deposit mineral ions such as phosphate and orthophosphate into the dental enamel structure; however, it is unknown whether these extracts produce toxic effects on the dental pulp. OBJECTIVE To assess cytotoxicity effects on human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) exposed to extracts isolated from I. guayusa and P. marginatum and, hence, their safety for clinical use. METHODS Raman spectroscopy, fluorescence microscopy, and flow cytometry techniques were employed. For Raman spectroscopy, hDPSCs were seeded onto nanobiochips designed to provide surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS effect), which enhances their Raman signal by several orders of magnitude. After eight days in culture, I. guayusa and P. marginatum extracts at different concentrations (10, 50, and 100 ppm) were added. Raman measurements were performed at 0, 12, and 24 h following extract application. Fluorescence microscopy was conducted using an OLIMPUS fv1000 microscope, a live-dead assay was performed using a kit employing a BD FACS Canto TM II flow cytometer, and data analysis was determined using a FlowJo program. RESULTS The Raman spectroscopy results showed spectra consistent with viable cells. These findings were corroborated using fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry techniques, confirming high cellular viability. CONCLUSIONS The analyzed extracts exhibited low cytotoxicity, suggesting that they could be safely applied on enamel for remineralization purposes. The use of nanobiochips for SERS effect improved the cell viability assessment.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) is a genetically determined, non-syndromic enamel dysplasia that may manifest as hypoplasia, hypomaturation, or hypocalcification and can commonly be classified into four primary groups. In this retrospective analysis, specific orofacial characteristics are described and associated with each of the AI types based on a patient cohort from Witten/Herdecke University, Germany. METHODS Data from 19 patients (ten male and nine female, mean age 12.27 ± 4.06 years) with AI who presented at the Department of Orthodontics between July 2011 and December 2023 were analyzed. Baseline skeletal and dental conditions were assessed, including the presence of hypodontia, displacements, and taurodontism. AI was classified into classes I-IV based on phenotype. Treatment needs were evaluated according to the main findings following the German KIG classification, while the radiological enamel situation was determined using panoramic radiographs. RESULTS An approximately equal distribution between classes II and III was found and a slight inclination toward a dolichofacial configuration (ΔML-NSL: 5.07 ± 9.23°, ΔML-NL: 4.24 ± 8.04°). Regarding orthodontic findings, disturbance in tooth eruption as well as open bite were the most prevalent issues (both 36.8%, n = 7). The most common AI classes were type I and II, which show an almost even distribution about the skeletal classes in sagittal dimension, while dolichofacial configuration was found most frequently in vertical dimension. CONCLUSION Both clinical and radiological orthodontic findings in context with AI are subject to extensive distribution. It seems that no specific orofacial findings can be confirmed in association with AI with regard to the common simple classes I-IV. It may be more appropriate to differentiate the many subtypes according to their genetic aspects to identify possible associated orthodontic findings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Amelogenesis Imperfecta (AI) is a disorder of tooth development characterized by abnormal enamel formation. In order to detect other dental and jawbone abnormalities that could be associated with AI, a retrospective and analytic study was conducted comparing panoramic radiographs of AI and non-AI patients. MATERIAL AND METHODS Digital panoramic radiographs of 60 AI and 60 non-AI patients were examined. Abnormalities in dental number, size, shape, eruption, and in the shape of the dental arches were checked and blindly recorded by two experimented observers. Descriptive statistics using percentages and chi-square test with .05 level of significance value was used. RESULTS Prevalence of supernumerary teeth, dental agenesis, microdontia, taurodontism, radicular dilacerations, dental inclusions, temporary teeth persistence, and pulp calcifications was significantly higher in AI patients compared to control patients. Prevalence of periapical images, cysts, and hypercementosis was lower in AI patients compared to control patients, with no statistically significant difference. A significant prevalence of mandibular hypoplasia was also noted in AI patients. CONCLUSION In addition to enamel defect, panoramic radiography was useful in detecting other dental abnormalities and mandibular hypoplasia associated with AI and should therefore be systematically indicated for AI patients' care.

Abstract
Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) represents a group of clinically and genetically heterogeneous disorders that affect enamel formation and mineralization. Although AI is commonly considered a monogenic disorder, digenic inheritance is rarely reported. In this study, we recruited two nonconsanguineous Chinese families exhibiting diverse phenotypes of enamel defects among affected family members. Digenic variants were discovered in both probands. In family 1, the proband inherited a paternal frameshift variant in LAMA3 (NM_198129.4:c.3712dup) and a maternal deletion encompassing the entire AMELX gene. This resulted in a combined hypoplastic and hypomineralized AI phenotype, which was distinct from the parents' manifestations. In family 2, whole-exome sequencing analysis revealed the proband carried a maternal heterozygous splicing variant in COL17A1 (NC_000010.11 (NM_000494.3): c.4156 + 2dup) and compound heterozygous variants in RELT (paternal: NM_032871.4:c.260A > T; maternal: NM_032871.4:c.521 T > G). These genetic changes caused the abundant irregular enamel defects observed in the proband, whereas other affected family members carrying heterozygous variants in both COL17A1 and RELT displayed only horizontal grooves as their phenotype. The pathogenicity of the novel COL17A1 splice site variant was confirmed through RT-PCR and minigene assay. This study enhances our understanding by highlighting the potential association between the co-occurrence of variants in two genes and variable phenotypes observed in AI patients.

Abstract
Amelogenesis imperfecta is a rare genetic disorder that interferes with normal enamel formation. Of the 4 main types of amelogenesis imperfecta, hypoplastic (type 1) is the most prevalent, characterized by a quantitative alteration in enamel. The pitting or reduced thickness of the enamel results in generalized hypersensitivity, increased susceptibility to caries and infection, attrition, and a loss in vertical dimension of occlusion. Prosthodontic management of these patients can be challenging not only functionally and restoratively, but also from an emotional and psychosocial standpoint. This clinical report describes the prosthodontic management and rehabilitation of two young adult siblings with hypoplastic (type 1) amelogenesis imperfecta.

Abstract
Kohlschütter-Tönz syndrome (KTS) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by severe intellectual disability, early-onset epileptic seizures, and amelogenesis imperfecta. Here, we present a novel Rogdi mutant mouse deleting exons 6-11- a mutation found in KTS patients disabling ROGDI function. This Rogdi-/- mutant model recapitulates most KTS symptoms. Mutants displayed pentylenetetrazol-induced seizures, confirming epilepsy susceptibility. Spontaneous locomotion and circadian activity tests demonstrate Rogdi mutant hyperactivity mirroring patient spasticity. Object recognition impairment indicates memory deficits. Rogdi-/- mutant enamel was markedly less mature. Scanning electron microscopy confirmed its hypomineralized/hypomature crystallization, as well as its low mineral content. Transcriptomic RNA sequencing of postnatal day 5 lower incisors showed downregulated enamel matrix proteins Enam, Amelx, and Ambn. Enamel crystallization appears highly pH-dependent, cycling between an acidic and neutral pH during enamel maturation. Rogdi-/- teeth exhibit no signs of cyclic dental acidification. Additionally, expression changes in Wdr72, Slc9a3r2, and Atp6v0c were identified as potential contributors to these tooth acidification abnormalities. These proteins interact through the acidifying V-ATPase complex. Here, we present the Rogdi-/- mutant as a novel model to partially decipher KTS pathophysiology. Rogdi-/- mutant defects in acidification might explain the unusual combination of enamel and rare neurological disease symptoms.

[PMID: 35473905 DOI: 10.1016/j.prosdent.2022.02.025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/18/2021] [Revised: 02/20/2022] [Accepted: 02/21/2022] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
Amelogenesis imperfecta is a hereditary disorder that affects the enamel formation of the primary and permanent dentition and has significant consequences because hypersensitivity causes difficulty with oral hygiene, function, self-esteem, and quality of life. Patients diagnosed with amelogenesis imperfecta often require extensive treatment, often at an early age. Prosthodontic intervention of adolescent patients with amelogenesis imperfecta presents specific clinical challenges. This clinical report describes the fixed prosthodontic rehabilitation of a teenage patient with amelogenesis imperfecta by using a fully digital workflow throughout the treatment process, which facilitated functional, biomechanical, esthetic, and sociopsychological improvements.

Association between malocclusions and amelogenesis imperfecta genotype and phenotype: A systematic review. Int Orthod 2023; 21:100789. [PMID: 37494776 DOI: 10.1016/j.ortho.2023.100789] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/24/2023] [Revised: 06/19/2023] [Accepted: 06/24/2023] [Indexed: 07/28/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The aim of this systematic review (Prospero CRD42022323188) is to investigate whether an association exists in patients with amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) between occlusal characteristics and genotype on the one hand and enamel structural phenotype on the other. MATERIAL AND METHODS Reports up to May 2023 assessing occlusion of individuals with AI were browsed in a systematic search using Medline, Embase, ISI Web of Science, and the grey literature. Randomised control trials, case control studies, and case series specifying both occlusion, assessed by cephalometric or clinical analysis, and genotype or dental phenotype in patients with AI were included without any age limitation. Two authors independently selected the publications and extracted the data in accordance with the PRISMA statement. The risk of bias was assessed with the Critical Appraisal Checklists from the Johanna Briggs Institute. RESULTS Twenty-five articles were chosen from the 261 results. Most of the included publications were case series (n=22) and case control studies (n=3). Thirteen studies reported both a genotype (ENAM, FAM83H, FAM20A, DLX3, CNMM4, WDR72) and occlusal diagnostic. The methodological quality of the studies was moderate. All AI phenotypes showed an open bite (OB) rate around 35%, except mixed form. The other malocclusions were not often mentioned. No correlation between occlusal phenotype and genotype or AI phenotype could be identified in patients with AI, as most studies had short occlusal descriptions and small sample sizes. CONCLUSION OB malocclusions were more frequently reported in AI. This review highlighted the need for a more accurate description of orofacial features associated with AI, to better clarify the role of amelogenesis genes in the regulation of craniofacial morphogenesis and identify patients requiring orthognathic surgery at an early stage.

Abstract
Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) is a rare genetic disorder affecting children and adults. Knowledge about AI is limited to clinical representation and radiographical findings. Various treatments are provided to children with AI, yet no definitive treatment guideline has been suggested in the literature. This scoping review highlights the knowledge of the etiology and classification of AI and synthesizes these findings in a comprehensive review, focusing mainly on the various forms of AI in children and management with a restorative conservative approach. Five electronic databases, namely, PubMed, Google Scholar, Embase, Web of Science, and Scopus, were searched for the relevant articles. The search was performed in two phases: first for title and abstract, and second for full-text articles. The studies included in this scoping review were published from 2013 to August 2023. The data extraction was done on a customized sheet. A total of 33 studies were included in this review, of which 19 were reports and series, seven were observational, and seven were reviews. Most patients included in this review suffered from the hypoplastic type of AI (54%), followed by hypomatured (36%), and hypocalcified (10%). The treatment modalities explained were divided into the following three phases: temporary, transient, and permanent. Almost all included reports suggested the requirement for guidelines for treating AI among young children. This scoping review suggests the need for guidelines for treating AI in children. Moreover, pediatric dentists should prioritize early diagnosis and treatment and long-term follow-up for AI in children to effectively enhance the patient's psychological well-being and overall quality of life.

Abstract
Magnesium (Mg2+ ) is the most abundant divalent cation in cells and plays key roles in almost all biological processes. CBS-pair domain divalent metal cation transport mediators (CNNMs) are a newly characterized class of Mg2+ transporters present throughout biology. Originally discovered in bacteria, there are four CNNM proteins in humans, which are involved in divalent cation transport, genetic diseases, and cancer. Eukaryotic CNNMs are composed of four domains: an extracellular domain, a transmembrane domain, a cystathionine-β-synthase (CBS)-pair domain, and a cyclic nucleotide-binding homology domain. The transmembrane and CBS-pair core are the defining features of CNNM proteins with over 20 000 protein sequences known from over 8000 species. Here, we review the structural and functional studies of eukaryotic and prokaryotic CNNMs that underlie our understanding of their regulation and mechanism of ion transport. Recent structures of prokaryotic CNNMs confirm the transmembrane domain mediates ion transport with the CBS-pair domain likely playing a regulatory role through binding divalent cations. Studies of mammalian CNNMs have identified new binding partners. These advances are driving progress in understanding this deeply conserved and widespread family of ion transporters.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Short stature, amelogenesis imperfecta, and skeletal dysplasia with scoliosis is a rare, autosomal recessive, skeletal disorder first described in 2018. This syndrome starts with pre- and postnatal developmental delay, and gradually presents with variable facial dysmorphisms, a short stature, amelogenesis imperfecta, and progressive skeletal dysplasia affecting the limbs, joints, hands, feet, and spine. CASE PRESENTATION We identified a homozygous novel nonsense mutation in exon 1 of SLC10A7 (NM_001300842.2: c.100G > T / p.Gly34*) segregating with the typical disease phenotype in a Han Chinese family. We reviewed the 12-year surgical treatment history with seven interventions on spine. CONCLUSION To date, only 12 cases of the SLC10A7 mutation have been reported, mainly from consanguineous families. Our patient showed a relatively severe and broad clinical phenotype compared with previously reported cases. In this patient, annual check-ups and timely surgeries led to a good outcome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) is a developmental enamel defect affecting the structure of enamel, esthetic appearance, and the tooth masticatory function. Gene mutations are reported to be relevant to AI. However, the mechanism underlying AI caused by different mutations is still unclear. This study aimed to reveal the molecular pathogenesis in AI families with 2 novel pre-mRNA splicing mutations. METHODS Two Chinese families with AI were recruited. Whole-exome sequencing and Sanger sequencing were performed to identify mutations in candidate genes. Minigene splicing assays were performed to analyze the mutation effects on mRNA splicing alteration. Furthermore, three-dimensional structures of mutant proteins were predicted by AlphaFold2 to evaluate the detrimental effect. RESULTS The affected enamel in family 1 was thin, rough, and stained, which was diagnosed as hypoplastic-hypomature AI. Genomic analysis revealed a novel splicing mutation (NM_001142.2: c.570 + 1G > A) in the intron 6 of amelogenin (AMELX) gene in family 1, resulting in a partial intron 6 retention effect. The proband in family 2 exhibited a typical hypoplastic AI, and the splicing mutation (NM_031889.2: c.123 + 4 A > G) in the intron 4 of enamelin (ENAM) gene was observed in the proband and her father. This mutation led to exon 4 skipping. The predicted structures showed that there were obvious differences in the mutation proteins compared with wild type, leading to impaired function of mutant proteins. CONCLUSIONS In this study, we identified two new splicing mutations in AMELX and ENAM genes, which cause hypoplastic-hypomature and hypoplastic AI, respectively. These results expand the spectrum of genes causing AI and broaden our understanding of molecular genetic pathology of enamel formation.

Abstract
Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) is a group of rare genetic conditions characterized by quantitative and/or qualitative tooth enamel alterations. AI can manifest as an isolated trait or as part of a syndrome. Recently, five biallelic disease-causing variants in the RELT gene were identified in 7 families with autosomal recessive amelogenesis imperfecta (ARAI). RELT encodes an orphan receptor in the tumor necrosis factor (TNFR) superfamily expressed during tooth development, with unknown function. Here, we report one Brazilian and two French families with ARAI and a distinctive hypomineralized phenotype with hypoplastic enamel, post-eruptive enamel loss, and occlusal attrition. Using Next Generation Sequencing (NGS), four novel RELT variants were identified (c.120+1G>A, p.(?); c.120+1G>T, p.(?); c.193T>C, p.(Cys65Arg) and c.1260_1263dup, p.(Arg422Glyfs*5)). Our findings extend the knowledge of ARAI dental phenotypes and expand the disease-causing variants spectrum of the RELT gene.

Abstract
Unique dental conditions in children include odontogenic cysts and tumors, hereditary dental diseases, developmental anomalies, and lesions associated with the eruption of the primary or permanent teeth. Many of these conditions have long lasting effects on the adult dentition in terms of affecting esthetics, function, and overall quality of life. Inherited dental syndromes affect the dental hard tissues specifically the enamel, dentin, and/or cementum in a generalized manner, involving both primary and permanent teeth. These conditions manifest in altered quality or quantity of the hard tissues, leading to fragility, tooth loss and dental diseases such as caries, periapical pathology, and periodontal disease. This category includes amelogenesis imperfecta, dentinogenesis imperfecta, dentin dysplasia, hypophosphatasia, and hypophosphatemia. Developmental defects such as regional odontodysplasia are defined by involvement of the primary and permanent dentition in a localized manner, identified in early childhood. This review will elaborate on the histologic findings in these selected dental conditions with a discussion on clinical and radiographic findings, as well as molecular features wherever appropriate.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Micro-focus X-ray computed tomography (μCT) helps evaluate specimens without destroying it. However, its accuracy of quantifying bone mineral density remains to be fully elucidated. We aimed to verify the accuracy of calcification assessed by μCT, by comparing the images of identical specimens obtained via different methods such as μCT and electron probe micro analyzer (EPMA) analyses. METHODS The maxillae, mandibles, and tibiae of five-week-old male mice were analyzed. Calcification density was analyzed using μCT. The right sides of the specimens were decalcified and processed for Azan staining. The left side of the specimens underwent elemental mapping for Ca, Mg, and P using EPMA. RESULTS μCT revealed a significant increase in calcification levels in the following order: enamel, dentin, cortical bone, and trabecular bone. These results reflected the Ca and P levels observed in the EPMA analyses. μCT demonstrated significant differences in the degree of calcification among the enamel tissues or dentin tissues, except for dentin in the maxillary incisors and molars. However, EPMA analysis did not demonstrate significant differences in the Ca and P levels among the same tissue samples. CONCLUSIONS EPMA elemental analysis can be used to measure Ca and P levels for evaluating the calcification rate of hard tissues. Additionally, the study results validate the evaluation of calcification density via μCT. Furthermore, μCT can evaluate even minute differences in calcification rates compared with EPMA analysis.

Abstract
Tooth enamel is generated by ameloblasts. Any failure in amelogenesis results in defects in the enamel, a condition known as amelogenesis imperfecta. Here, we report that mice with deficient autophagy in epithelial-derived tissues (K14-Cre;Atg7F/F and K14-Cre;Atg3F/F conditional knockout mice) exhibit amelogenesis imperfecta. Micro-computed tomography imaging confirmed that enamel density and thickness were significantly reduced in the teeth of these mice. At the molecular level, ameloblast differentiation was compromised through ectopic accumulation and activation of NRF2, a specific substrate of autophagy. Through bioinformatic analyses, we identified Bcl11b, Dlx3, Klk4, Ltbp3, Nectin1, and Pax9 as candidate genes related to amelogenesis imperfecta and the NRF2-mediated pathway. To investigate the effects of the ectopic NRF2 pathway activation caused by the autophagy deficiency, we analyzed target gene expression and NRF2 binding to the promoter region of candidate target genes and found suppressed gene expression of Bcl11b, Dlx3, Klk4, and Nectin1 but not of Ltbp3 and Pax9. Taken together, our findings indicate that autophagy plays a crucial role in ameloblast differentiation and that its failure results in amelogenesis imperfecta through ectopic NRF2 activation.

Abstract
There are more than 900 genetic syndromes associated with oral manifestations. These syndromes can have serious health implications, and left undiagnosed, can hamper treatment and prognosis later in life. About 6.67% of the population will develop a rare disease during their lifetime, some of which are difficult to diagnose. The establishment of a data and tissue bank of rare diseases with oral manifestations in Quebec will help medical professionals identify the genes involved, will improve knowledge on the rare genetic diseases, and will also lead to improved patient management. It will also allow samples and information sharing with other clinicians and investigators. As an example of a condition requiring additional research, dental ankylosis is a condition in which the tooth's cementum fuses to the surrounding alveolar bone. This can be secondary to traumatic injury but is often idiopathic, and the genes involved in the idiopathic cases, if any, are poorly known. To date, patients with both identified and unidentified genetic etiology for their dental anomalies were recruited through dental and genetics clinics for the study. They underwent sequencing of selected genes or exome sequencing depending on the manifestation. We recruited 37 patients and we identified pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants in WNT10A, EDAR, AMBN, PLOD1, TSPEAR, PRKAR1A, FAM83H, PRKACB, DLX3, DSPP, BMP2, TGDS. Our project led to the establishment of the Quebec Dental Anomalies Registry, which will help researchers, medical and dental practitioners alike understand the genetics of dental anomalies and facilitate research collaborations into improved standards of care for patients with rare dental anomalies and any accompanying genetic diseases.

Abstract
Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) is a heterogeneous group of genetic rare diseases disrupting enamel development (Smith et al., Front Physiol, 2017a, 8, 333). The clinical enamel phenotypes can be described as hypoplastic, hypomineralized or hypomature and serve as a basis, together with the mode of inheritance, to Witkop's classification (Witkop, J Oral Pathol, 1988, 17, 547-553). AI can be described in isolation or associated with others symptoms in syndromes. Its occurrence was estimated to range from 1/700 to 1/14,000. More than 70 genes have currently been identified as causative. Objectives: We analyzed using next-generation sequencing (NGS) a heterogeneous cohort of AI patients in order to determine the molecular etiology of AI and to improve diagnosis and disease management. Methods: Individuals presenting with so called "isolated" or syndromic AI were enrolled and examined at the Reference Centre for Rare Oral and Dental Diseases (O-Rares) using D4/phenodent protocol (www.phenodent.org). Families gave written informed consents for both phenotyping and molecular analysis and diagnosis using a dedicated NGS panel named GenoDENT. This panel explores currently simultaneously 567 genes. The study is registered under NCT01746121 and NCT02397824 (https://clinicaltrials.gov/). Results: GenoDENT obtained a 60% diagnostic rate. We reported genetics results for 221 persons divided between 115 AI index cases and their 106 associated relatives from a total of 111 families. From this index cohort, 73% were diagnosed with non-syndromic amelogenesis imperfecta and 27% with syndromic amelogenesis imperfecta. Each individual was classified according to the AI phenotype. Type I hypoplastic AI represented 61 individuals (53%), Type II hypomature AI affected 31 individuals (27%), Type III hypomineralized AI was diagnosed in 18 individuals (16%) and Type IV hypoplastic-hypomature AI with taurodontism concerned 5 individuals (4%). We validated the genetic diagnosis, with class 4 (likely pathogenic) or class 5 (pathogenic) variants, for 81% of the cohort, and identified candidate variants (variant of uncertain significance or VUS) for 19% of index cases. Among the 151 sequenced variants, 47 are newly reported and classified as class 4 or 5. The most frequently discovered genotypes were associated with MMP20 and FAM83H for isolated AI. FAM20A and LTBP3 genes were the most frequent genes identified for syndromic AI. Patients negative to the panel were resolved with exome sequencing elucidating for example the gene involved ie ACP4 or digenic inheritance. Conclusion: NGS GenoDENT panel is a validated and cost-efficient technique offering new perspectives to understand underlying molecular mechanisms of AI. Discovering variants in genes involved in syndromic AI (CNNM4, WDR72, FAM20A … ) transformed patient overall care. Unravelling the genetic basis of AI sheds light on Witkop's AI classification.

Abstract
Dental caries is listed as one of the three major non-communicable diseases by the World Health Organization, and its main treatment method is to restore it by filling it with resin. At present, the visible light-cure method has the problems of non-uniform curing and low penetration efficiency, which makes the bonding area easy to develop marginal leakages, thus leading to secondary caries and requiring repeated treatment. In this work, through the strong terahertz (THz) irradiation-weak THz detection technique, it is found that the strong THz electromagnetic pulses can accelerate the curing process of the resin, and the weak-field THz spectroscopy can be used to monitor this dynamic change in real time, which will greatly promote the potential application of THz technology in dentistry.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Oculo-dento-digital dysplasia (ODDD, OMIM# 164200) is a rare genetic disorder caused by mutation in Gap junction alpha gene that encodes connexin 43 (Cx43) protein. In this paper, the case of a 16-year-old boy is reported who presented with the complaint of toothache. Examination revealed unusual facial features, i.e., long narrow nose, hypertelorism, prominent epicanthal folds along with syndactyly and camptodactyly. We have also compiled available dental literature on ODDD that will help clinicians in early diagnosis and management of this condition. MATERIALS AND METHODS A literature search was performed in PubMed NLM, EBSCO Dentistry & Oral Sciences Source, and EBSCO CINAHL Plus. RESULTS A total of 309 articles were identified in the literature search. Only 17 articles were included based on the predetermined inclusion and exclusion criteria in the review synthesis. The included articles were case reports (n = 15), a case report and review (n = 1), and an original article (n = 1). Enamel hypoplasia, hypomineralization, microdontia, pulp stones, curved roots, and taurodontism were common dental findings in ODDD. CONCLUSIONS After establishing definitive diagnosis, a multidisciplinary team should work in cohesion to improve the quality of life of patients. Immediate treatment should be focused on the correction of current oral condition and symptomatic treatment. In the long term, attention should be diverted to prevent tooth wear and maintaining the occlusal vertical dimension to establish adequate function.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the variant of an amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) family and to explore the function of the FAM83H (family with sequence similarity 83 member H) in the enamel formation. MATERIALS AND METHODS We investigated a five-generation Chinese family diagnosed with AI; clinical data was collected, whole-exome sequencing (WES) was conducted to explore the pathogenic gene and variants and Sanger sequencing was used to verify the variants. The three-dimensional protein structures of wild-type and mutant FAM83H were predicted using alpha fold 2. To study the possible regulatory function of Fam83h on amelogenesis, immunolocalization was performed to observe the expression of Fam83h protein in Sprague-Dawley rat postnatal incisors. The mRNA and protein level of amelogenin, enamelin, kallikrein-related peptidase-4 and ameloblastin were also detected after the Fam83h was knocked down by small interfering RNA (siRNA) in HAT-7 cells. RESULTS A known nonsense variant (c.973 C > T) in exon 5 of FAM83H gene was found in this family, causing a truncated protein (p.R325X). Immunolocalization of Fam83h in Sprague-Dawley rat postnatal incisors showed that Fam83h protein expression was detected in presecretory and secretory stages. When Fam83h expression was reduced by siRNA, the expression of amelogenin, enamelin, kallikrein-related peptidase-4 decreased. However, the expression of ameloblastin increased. CONCLUSIONS FAM83H gene variant (c.973 C > T) causes AI. FAM83H regulates the secretion of enamel matrix proteins and affects ameloblast differentiation. CLINICAL RELEVANCE This study provided that FAM83H variants could influence enamel formation and provided new insights into the pathogenesis of AI.

Abstract
The enamel matrix protein Ameloblastin (Ambn) has critical physiological functions, including regulation of mineral formation, cell differentiation, and cell-matrix adhesion. We investigated localized structural changes in Ambn during its interactions with its targets. We performed biophysical assays and used liposomes as a cell membrane model. The xAB2N and AB2 peptides were rationally designed to encompass regions of Ambn that contained self-assembly and helix-containing membrane-binding motifs. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) on spin-labeled peptides showed localized structural gains in the presence of liposomes, amelogenin (Amel), and Ambn. Vesicle clearance and leakage assays indicated that peptide-membrane interactions were independent from peptide self-association. Tryptophan fluorescence and EPR showed competition between Ambn-Amel and Ambn-membrane interactions. We demonstrate localized structural changes in Ambn upon interaction with different targets via a multitargeting domain, spanning residues 57 to 90 of mouse Ambn. Structural changes of Ambn following its interaction with different targets have relevant implications for the multifunctionality of Ambn in enamel formation.

Abstract
Background Dental anomalies (DAs) represent a significant chapter in pediatric dentistry with a lot of practical relevance. Both primary and permanent dentitions may be affected. Objective The main objective of our study was to evaluate, using digital panoramic radiographs, the prevalence, distribution, and patterns of DAs in a sample of Lebanese children aged between 8 and 15 years old. Methods 112 digital panoramic radiographs of patients aged between 8 and 15 years (60 males and 52 females) from the year 2017 till 2022 attending the department of Pediatric Dentistry and Dental Public Health at the Faculty of Dental Medicine at the Lebanese University were assessed for DAs of number (hypodontia, oligodontia, hyperdontia), of size (microdontia, macrodontia), of shape (fusion, gemination, dilaceration, taurodontism), of position (transposition, ectopia, impaction), and of structure (dentin dysplasia, amelogenesis imperfecta, dentinogenesis imperfecta). The data were analyzed statistically using Chi-square and Fisher's exact tests. Results Out of 112 patient radiographs, 84 showed at least one DA, which suggests a very high prevalence (75%). Among them, 36.9% exhibited multiple types of anomalies. These 84 patients showed a total of 274 DAs, distributed equally among males and females. Conclusion Dentists should be alerted to the presence of DAs. Their high prevalence requires careful clinical and radiological examinations for early detection. Regular monitoring is mandatory and could guide preventive approaches to minimize associated dental complications.

[PMID: 37936447 DOI: 10.2174/0113894501257011231030161427] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2023] [Revised: 09/21/2023] [Accepted: 10/19/2023] [Indexed: 11/09/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) refers to a heterogeneous group of conditions with multiple factors which contribute to the hypomineralisation of enamel. Preventive measures are necessary to predict this pathology. Prospects for preventive medicine are closely related to the search for new informative methods for diagnosing a human disease. MicroRNAs are prominent for the non-invasive diagnostic platform. THE AIM OF THE STUDY The aim of the review is to review the heterogeneous factors involved in amelogenesis and to select the microRNA panel associated with the AI type. METHODS We used DIANA Tools (algorithms, databases and software) for interpreting and archiving data in a systematic framework ranging from the analysis of expression regulation from deep sequencing data to the annotation of miRNA regulatory elements and targets (https://dianalab. e-ce.uth.gr/). In our study, based on a gene panel associated with the AI types, twenty-four miRNAs were identified for the hypoplastic type (supplement), thirty-five for hypocalcified and forty-- nine for hypomaturation AI. The selection strategy included the microRNA search with multiple targets using the AI type's gene panel. RESULTS Key proteins, calcium-dependent and genetic factors were analysed to reveal their role in amelogenesis. The role of extracellular non-coding RNA sequences with multiple regulatory functions seems to be the most attractive. We chose the list of microRNAs associated with the AI genes. We found four microRNAs (hsa-miR-27a-3p, hsa-miR-375, hsa-miR-16-5p and hsamiR- 146a-5p) for the gene panel, associated with the hypoplastic type of AI; five microRNAs (hsa- miR-29c-3p, hsa-miR-124-3p, hsa-miR-1343-3p, hsa-miR-335-5p, and hsa-miR-16-5p - for hypocalcified type of AI, and seven ones (hsa-miR-124-3p, hsa-miR-147a, hsa-miR-16-5p, hsamiR- 429, hsa-let-7b-5p, hsa-miR-146a-5p, hsa-miR-335-5p) - for hypomaturation. It was revealed that hsa-miR-16-5p is included in three panels specific for both hypoplastic, hypocalcified, and hypomaturation types. Hsa-miR-146a-5p is associated with hypoplastic and hypomaturation type of AI, which is associated with the peculiarities of the inflammatory response immune response. In turn, hsa-miR-335-5p associated with hypocalcified and hypomaturation type of AI. CONCLUSION Liquid biopsy approaches are a promising way to reduce the economic cost of treatment for these patients in modern healthcare. Unique data exist about the role of microRNA in regulating amelogenesis. The list of microRNAs that are associated with AI genes and classified by AI types has been uncovered. The target gene analysis showed the variety of functions of selected microRNAs, which explains the multiple heterogeneous mechanisms in amelogenesis. Predisposition to mineralisation problems is a programmed event. Many factors determine the manifestation of this problem. Additionally, it is necessary to remember the variable nature of the changes, which reduces the prediction accuracy. Therefore, models based on liquid biopsy and microRNAs make it possible to take into account these factors and their influence on the mineralisation. The found data needs further investigation.

Abstract
Oculodentodigital dysplasia (ODDD; MIM #164200), a rare genetic disorder characterized by abnormal craniofacial, dental, ocular, and digital features, is caused by mutations in GJA1 (gap junction alpha-1) gene and inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern. However, an autosomal recessive pattern is also reported. Here we described 2 families with members affected by ODDD. In the first family, the c.752G>C (p.S251T) and c.848C>T (p.P283L) heterozygous missense mutations and the c.825C>T (p.T275T) silent mutation were identified in the proband, which showed mild ODDD phenotypes, and in his mother, which displayed hemolytic anemia and thrombocytopenia. In the second family, the patients displayed typical features of ODDD, and Sanger sequencing identified a novel homozygous c.604C>T (p.R202C) missense mutation, whereas the parents carried the mutation. Together, these findings suggest that homozygous mutation in GJA1 induces a more severe ODDD phenotype, though interfamilial phenotype variability was observed, whereas compound heterozygous mutations in GJA1 cause a mild phenotype.

Knowledge, perceptions, attitudes, and clinical experiences on molar incisor hypomineralization among Syrian pediatric dentists and general dental practitioners: a cross-sectional study. BMC Oral Health 2022; 22:561.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH) is a widespread oral health problem. Dentists encounter several challenges regarding MIH management worldwide. The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the knowledge, perceptions, attitudes, and clinical experiences on MIH among general dental practitioners and pediatric dentists in Syria. METHODS All general dental practitioners and pediatric dentists belonging to the Syrian Dental Syndicate of Damascus were invited to complete a cross-sectional structured questionnaire (n = 1936). The questionnaire consisted of four sections and required responses regarding demographic data, knowledge, perceptions, attitudes, and experiences on MIH. Data were analyzed with Pearson's chi-square test and multivariate regression models using SPSS Ver. 23.0. RESULTS The overall response rate was 36.31% (703/1936). Pediatric dentists were significantly more familiar with MIH (p < 0.001) and more confident when diagnosing it (p < 0.001). Most participants (43.95%) perceived an increase in MIH prevalence in Syria. Stainless steel crowns were the most favorable restorative material for molars with post-eruptive breakdown (51.38%). As for molars and incisors with opacities, composite resin was preferred with (41.82%), and (67.51%) respectively. General dental practitioners requested further training regarding MIH treatment (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Pediatric dentists were equipped with further knowledge regarding MIH, and were more confident when diagnosing it. There is a need for additional training and education for general dental practitioners. Most respondents perceived an increase in the prevalence of MIH. There is a dearth of data regarding MIH prevalence in Syria. The materials of choice for restoring teeth with MIH were stainless steel crowns and composite resin.

Abstract
Enamel renal syndrome (ERS) due to loss of function (LOF) mutation of FAM20A gene typically consists of hypoplastic amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) and bilateral nephrolithiasis/nephrocalcinosis. Recent evidence suggests that FAM20A interacts with FAM20C and increases its activity; thus LOF mutation of FAM20A leads to impaired FAM20C action. FAM20C, a golgi casein kinase, phosphorylates fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-23, prevents its glycosylation and makes it more susceptible to degradation by furine proteases. Consequently, inactivating mutations of FAM20C lead to increased concentration of bioactive and intact FGF-23 in circulation and resultant hypophosphataemia. LOF mutation of FAM20A, thus, might also be associated with FGF-23-mediated hypophosphataemia; however, such an association has never been reported in the literature. We describe, for the first time, a triad of AI, bilateral nephrolithiasis and FGF-23-mediated hypophosphataemia in LOF mutation of FAM20A. We suggest that serum phosphate should be measured in all patients with ERS to avoid metabolic and skeletal complications of undiagnosed, hence untreated hypophosphataemia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) is an inherited disorder of enamel development that is challenging to treat and often associated with negative patient and parental outcomes. Social media provides a valuable perspective on patients' and dental professionals' experience of AI and dental care. AIM To explore how the public and dental professionals use social media to discuss AI. DESIGN A cross-sectional study involving a systemic search of eight social media platforms using the search term 'amelogenesis imperfecta'. Relevant posts were selected using predefined eligibility criteria. Word content of eligible posts was qualitatively analysed using a thematic framework approach. RESULTS A total of 555 posts were identified, of which 144 were eligible for analysis. For dental professionals, the posts included case reports and seeking and sharing of information. For the public, the posts were related to individuals' experience of AI, dental treatment and outcome of treatment. CONCLUSIONS Posts from individuals affected by AI suggest a need for better distribution of reliable information and greater support. Case reports indicate that dental professionals find it challenging to recognise AI and determine appropriate treatment options. Social media could potentially be used to inform and support people with AI and allow dental professionals to share information and learning with peers.

Abstract
Junctional epidermolysis bullosa (JEB) is a group of autosomal recessive disorders characterized by amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) and fragility of the skin and mucous membranes. The purpose of this study was to identify pathogenic gene variants and investigate the phenotypic characteristics of abnormal enamel structure and mucocutaneous lesions in a patient with JEB. Clinical examination of the patient revealed hypoplastic AI, skin lesions, and oral ulcers, whereas her parents were normal. Whole-exome sequencing (WES) and cDNA cloning identified compound heterozygous variants of LAMB3 in the proband: c.125G>C in exon 3, c.1288 + 1G>A in intron 11, and c.1348C>T in exon 12. Among these, c.125G>C was inherited from her father, and the other two variants were inherited from her mother. Functional prediction indicated that the variants might change protein structure and cause disease. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) examination of the primary and permanent teeth revealed abnormal enamel morphology and microstructures. Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) and immunofluorescence (IF) staining showed significantly abnormal and disorganized epithelial cells in the gingival mucosa. Our results showed that this was a case of intermediate JEB1A (OMIM #226650) with autosomal recessive inheritance. The proband carried rare compound heterozygous variants of LAMB3. Our results broaden the variant spectrum of the LAMB3 gene and JEB cases. Moreover, this is the first study to identify histological malformations of the primary teeth and oral mucosa in LAMB3-related patients.

Abstract
In epithelia, claudin proteins are important components of the tight junctions as they determine the permeability and specificity to ions of the paracellular pathway. Mutations in CLDN10 cause the rare autosomal recessive HELIX syndrome (Hypohidrosis, Electrolyte imbalance, Lacrimal gland dysfunction, Ichthyosis, and Xerostomia), in which patients display severe enamel wear. Here, we assess whether this enamel wear is caused by an innate fragility directly related to claudin-10 deficiency in addition to xerostomia. A third molar collected from a female HELIX patient was analyzed by a combination of microanatomical and physicochemical approaches (i.e., electron microscopy, elemental mapping, Raman microspectroscopy, and synchrotron-based X-ray fluorescence). The enamel morphology, formation time, organization, and microstructure appeared to be within the natural variability. However, we identified accentuated strontium variations within the HELIX enamel, with alternating enrichments and depletions following the direction of the periodical striae of Retzius. These markings were also present in dentin. These data suggest that the enamel wear associated with HELIX may not be related to a disruption of enamel microstructure but rather to xerostomia. However, the occurrence of events of strontium variations within dental tissues might indicate repeated episodes of worsening of the renal dysfunction that may require further investigations.

Abstract
Background Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) can be challenging to manage due to the complexity and variation of presentation. Clear care pathways between general practice, specialist paediatric dentistry and adult services are required.Aim To assess the provision of specialist care and transitional care arrangements for paediatric patients with AI in the UK.Method An online survey was disseminated to members of the British Society of Paediatric Dentistry in January 2020. Descriptive analysis was used to interpret the quantitative and qualitative results.Results In total, 115 clinicians across all four nations participated. Most respondents (54%; n = 66), were based in the hospital dental service. Overall, 29% (n = 33) were consultants and 24% (n = 28) were specialists in paediatric dentistry. The most common patient age group seen was 6-12 years old. No clear AI referral pathway into specialist care was reported by 49% (n = 47). A clear transitional care pathway was deemed not to exist by 77% (n = 72), with 85.9% (n = 73) indicating a need. Qualitative analysis themes included 'unclear care pathways' and 'specialist care access problems'.Conclusion Access to specialist paediatric dental care and transition to adult services is not readily available throughout the UK for AI patients. There is a clear need to establish and improve existing pathways.

Abstract
This paper examines the various contemporary clinical interfaces between paediatric dentistry and restorative dentistry for patients with both acquired and congenital abnormalities presenting to primary and secondary care. Dental trauma of the child or adolescent has long-standing implications on future oral health due to conditions such as ankylosis, pulp necrosis, coronal tissue loss or tooth loss, all of which provide significant challenges into adulthood. Similarly, congenital conditions, such as hypodontia and structural deficiencies or malformations, such as amelogenesis and dentinogenesis imperfecta, result in the need for collaborative, multi-speciality decision-making from a young age, creating a pathway for longitudinal multi-disciplinary team treatment planning.

Abstract
Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) is a heterogeneous group of conditions characterized by inherited developmental defects of enamel. Patients with AI often have progressive and severe loss of occlusal vertical dimensions (OVD), resulting in challenging dental rehabilitation. In this case report, we present the management of a 24-year-old male patient who previously underwent orthodontics, direct and indirect restorations, and continued to have progressive tooth wear. His vertical dimensions were restored in two phases, firstly with provisional restorations at the improved OVD, followed by a combination of monolithic zirconia and lithium disilicate full-coverage crowns. A removable acrylic appliance was then constructed to protect his teeth. This report emphasizes the importance of preserving and protecting the OVD from an early age to prevent more costly and complicated management in future.

Anti-Inflammatory and Mineralization Effects of an ASP/PLGA-ASP/ACP/PLLA-PLGA Composite Membrane as a Dental Pulp Capping Agent. J Funct Biomater 2022; 13:jfb13030106. [PMID: 35997444 PMCID: PMC9397017 DOI: 10.3390/jfb13030106] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/07/2022] [Revised: 07/24/2022] [Accepted: 07/26/2022] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Dental pulp is essential for the development and long-term preservation of teeth. Dental trauma and caries often lead to pulp inflammation. Vital pulp therapy using dental pulp-capping materials is an approach to preserving the vitality of injured dental pulp. Most pulp-capping materials used in clinics have good biocompatibility to promote mineralization, but their anti-inflammatory effect is weak. Therefore, the failure rate will increase when dental pulp inflammation is severe. The present study developed an amorphous calcium phosphate/poly (L-lactic acid)-poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) membrane compounded with aspirin (hereafter known as ASP/PLGA-ASP/ACP/PLLA-PLGA). The composite membrane, used as a pulp-capping material, effectively achieved the rapid release of high concentrations of the anti-inflammatory drug aspirin during the early stages as well as the long-term release of low concentrations of aspirin and calcium/phosphorus ions during the later stages, which could repair inflamed dental pulp and promote mineralization. Meanwhile, the composite membrane promoted the proliferation of inflamed dental pulp stem cells, downregulated the expression of inflammatory markers, upregulated the expression of mineralization-related markers, and induced the formation of stronger reparative dentin in the rat pulpitis model. These findings indicate that this material may be suitable for use as a pulp-capping material in clinical applications.

Abstract
Whitening agents, such as hydrogen peroxide and carbamide peroxide, are currently used in clinical applications for dental esthetic and dental care. However, the free radicals generated by whitening agents cause pathological damage; therefore, their safety issues remain controversial. Furthermore, whitening agents are known to be unstable and short-lived. Since 2001, nanoparticles (NPs) have been researched for use in tooth whitening. Importantly, nanoparticles not only function as abrasives but also release reactive oxygen species and help remineralization. This review outlines the historical development of several NPs based on their whitening effects and side effects. NPs can be categorized into metals or metal oxides, ceramic particles, graphene oxide, and piezoelectric particles. Moreover, the status quo and future prospects are discussed, and recent progress in the development of NPs and their applications in various fields requiring tooth whitening is examined. This review promotes the research and development of next-generation NPs for use in tooth whitening.

Oral Alterations in Heritable Epidermolysis Bullosa: A Clinical Study and Literature Review. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2022; 2022:6493156. [PMID: 35686231 PMCID: PMC9173894 DOI: 10.1155/2022/6493156] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/12/2022] [Revised: 05/04/2022] [Accepted: 05/18/2022] [Indexed: 11/20/2022]
Abstract
Epidermolysis bullosa (EB) is a group of skin disorders with skin fragility characterized by blistering from minimal mechanical trauma with rupture at the dermoepidermal junction. There are four major classical heritable EB types, due to mutations in as many as 20 distinct genes: EB simplex (EBS), junctional EB (JEB), dystrophic EB (DEB), and Kindler EB (KEB). This study is aimed at reporting case series on patients (N = 8; males, n = 5 and females, n = 3, age range 12-68 years) affected by EB and performs a review of the literature on this topic. This group of disorders can affect oral soft and hard tissues in various ways, resulting in various effects including enamel hypoplasia, dental caries, microstomia, ankyloglossia, oral blistering, and ulcerations early-onset periodontal disease. From the sample results, it can be concluded that the clinical manifestation of EB patients is highly variable and very different in prognosis. Oral health deeply influences the quality of life of EB patients. Dental management is essential to prevent the aggravation of soft tissue damage and tooth loss and to improve the quality of life through prosthetic and restorative therapies. Dentists should consider the oral alterations of EB subtypes to perform a personalized approach to the patients' needs in a preventive and therapeutic point of view.

Abstract
Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) refers to a group of inherited odontological disorders that alter enamel formation. The AI variant is based on the primary enamel defect, classified as hypoplastic type I, hypo maturation type II, hypo calcification type III, and hypo maturation type IV. AI is commonly linked with the loss of the normal occlusal plane, the loss of the vertical dimension of occlusion (VDO), and impaired functions and esthetics. This case report describes the Hobo and Takayama twin-stage procedure for the rehabilitation of a patient with hypoplastic AI.

Abstract
Background Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) is known to be a monogenic genetic disease caused by a variety of genes demonstrating a wide spectrum of penetrance. FAM83H is reported to be involved in AI: however, whether FAM83H causes AI with incomplete penetrance is unclear. Methods Whole‐exome sequencing was performed on two patients with AI, and putative disease‐related variants were validated by Sanger sequencing. Bioinformatic and in vitro functional analyses were performed to functionally characterize the identified disease‐causing variants. Results We identified a novel heterozygous nonsense variant of FAM83H (NM_198488: c.1975G > T, p.Glu659Ter); in vitro functional analysis showed that this mutant produced mislocalized proteins and was deleterious. Surprisingly, the clinical manifestations of each of the six individuals carrying this variant were different, with one carrier appearing to be completely asymptomatic for AI. Conclusion Our findings expand the variant spectrum for FAM83H and the phenotypic spectrum for FAM83H‐associated AI and suggest that FAM83H‐mediated AI exhibits incomplete penetrance.

Abstract
Amelogenesis imperfecta is a congenital disorder within a heterogeneous group of conditions characterized by enamel hypoplasia. Patients suffer from early tooth loss, social embarrassment, eating difficulties, and pain due to an abnormally thin, soft, fragile, and discolored enamel with poor aesthetics and functionality. The etiology of amelogenesis imperfecta is complicated by genetic interactions. To identify mouse amelogenesis imperfecta-related genes (mAIGenes) and their respective phenotypes, we conducted a systematic literature review and database search and found and curated 70 mAIGenes across all of the databases. Our pathway enrichment analysis indicated that these genes were enriched in tooth development-associated pathways, forming four distinct groups. To explore how these genes are regulated and affect the phenotype, we predicted microRNA (miRNA)-gene interaction pairs using our bioinformatics pipeline. Our miRNA regulatory network analysis pinpointed that miR-16-5p, miR-27b-3p, and miR-23a/b-3p were hub miRNAs. The function of these hub miRNAs was evaluated through ameloblast differentiation assays with/without the candidate miRNA mimics using cultured mouse ameloblast cells. Our results revealed that overexpression of miR-16-5p and miR-27b-3p, but not miR-23a/b-3p, significantly inhibited ameloblast differentiation through regulation of mAIGenes. Thus, our study shows that miR-16-5p and miR-27b-3p are candidate pathogenic miRNAs for amelogenesis imperfecta.

Abstract
Introduction: Melatonin, an endogenous neurohormone, modulates the biological circadian rhythms of vertebrates. It functions have been reported in previous stomatological studies as anti-inflammation, antioxidant, osseointegration of dental implants and stimulation to dental pulp stem cells differentiation, but its role in ameloblastic differentiation and mineralization has been rarely studied. Objective: To reveal the effects of melatonin on the mineralization of ameloblast lineage cells (ALCs), and to identify the change in gene expression and the potential mechanism based on ribonucleic acid sequencing (RNA-seq) analysis. Method: ALCs were induced in melatonin-conditioned medium. After 7-days culture, Western blot, real-time PCR, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity test, RNA-seq were accordingly used to detect the change in molecular level. After 1-month odontogenic induction in melatonin medium, Alizarin Red-S (ARS) staining showed the changes of mineral nodules. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs), enrichment of functions and signaling pathways analysis based on Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) and Gene Ontology (GO) database were performed. The JNK3 antagonist (JNK3 inhibitor IX, SR3576) and β-arrestin1 (Arrb1) overexpression were applied to confirm the fluctuation of melatonin-medicated JNK3 and Arrb1 expression. Results: In this study, we found out melatonin contributed to the ameloblastic mineralization, from which we can observed the elevated expression of enamel matrix protein, and increased ALP activity and mineralized nodules formation. RNA-seq analysis showed the up-regulation of neural JNK3 and down-regulation of Arrb1 in ALCs. Meanwhile, phosphorylated JNK3 deficiency (phosphorylated JNK3 inhibitor---SR3576 added to culture medium) led to mineralization delay, and Arrb1 overexpression proved Arrb1 takes bridge between melatonin receptors (MTNR) and JNK3 in MAPK signaling pathway.

Abstract
Dentinogenesis imperfecta (DI) and amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) are hereditary abnormalities of dental hard tissues. Dental abnormalities may also be accompanied by symptoms of disorders such as osteogenesis imperfecta. AI and DI have a significant burden on socializing, function, and comfort; therefore, frequent screening and accurate diagnosis is the cornerstone of managing such conditions. Both AI and DI could be treated with many strategies, including restorative, prosthetic, periodontal, surgical, and orthodontics treatment. The interdisciplinary combination of orthodontic, prosthodontic, and periodontic treatment has been proven to improve the prognosis of AI and DI. Regarding orthodontic treatment, the most difficult element of orthodontic therapy may be maintaining a high level of motivation for what might be a prolonged form of treatment spanning several years. There are many forms of orthodontic management for AI and DI, including removable appliances, functional appliances, and fixed appliances. Clear aligner therapy (CAT) contains a broad range of equipment that works in different ways, has different construction processes, and is compatible with different malocclusion procedures. The application of CAT in patients with AI and DI is favorable over the fixed applicants. However, the available evidence regarding the application of CAT in AI is weak and heterogeneous. In this review, we discussed the current evidence regarding the application of clear CAT in patients with AI and DI.

Abstract
PURPOSE Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) is a hereditary condition which affects the composition and structure of enamel in terms of hypoplasia and/or hypomineralization. The condition severely affects patients facing such difficulties as hypersensibility, loss of tooth substance and poor aesthetics. The objective is to perform a systematic review of patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) in patients with amelogenesis imperfecta. METHODS Inclusion criteria were articles written in English, including PROMs from patients with amelogenesis imperfecta. The databases PubMed, Scopus and Web of Science were searched on April 27, 2022, and eligible articles were screened. Exclusion criteria were articles based on proxy reports and single case reports. RESULTS 405 studies were screened in terms of title and abstract, with 31 articles eligible for full-text screening, resulting in a total of 11 articles eligible for inclusion, (articles including 4-82 patients). The content was analyzed, resulting in the outcome divided into seven domains: Oral Health-Related Quality of Life (OHRQoL), Dental fear, Esthetics, Psychosocial factors, Function, Dental hypersensitivity, and Treatment outcome. CONCLUSION The limited quantity of research on PROMS from patients with AI indicates a significant impact of OHRQoL and daily life. A large variety of approaches have been presented in the articles. Patients report concerns of esthetics, hypersensitivity, function, and a general impact on well-being and social interaction. This highlights the importance for the need of early dental treatment.
