    GlossaryEnamel Hypoplasia

    developmental condition where tooth enamel is thin or deficient

    Enamel Hypoplasia is a developmental condition where the enamel, the hard outer layer of the teeth, is thinner or deficient due to disruptions during tooth formation. This can result in pits, grooves, or even missing sections of enamel, making the teeth more susceptible to decay and sensitivity. Causes can include nutritional deficiencies, illness, or genetic factors.
