| dc.description.abstract | Demarcated hypomineralization lesions of enamel (DHL) are qualitative developmental abnormalities of dental enamel, described morphologically as well-defined areas of hypomineralization. Two distinct entities of DHL have been demonstrated: Molar Incisor Hypomineralization (MIH) and Hypomineralized Second Primary Molars (HSPM). To date, very few prevalence studies of DHL exist in the Arab and Saudi regions. | en_US |
