Summary

This study looked at children aged 8 to 13 with a common enamel defect called Molar-Incisor Hypomineralization (MIH). Researchers measured inflammatory markers in the pulp (nerve) of affected teeth and compared them to healthy teeth. The goal was to better understand how MIH affects the inner tooth and potentially improve future diagnosis and treatment.
