    (October university for modern sciences and Arts MSA, 2023-01) Saleem, Hagar; Abouzeid, Menna Ashraf; Aly, Ghada Mohamed Mahmoud
    Molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH) is a clinical appearance of hypomineralization with systematic origin affecting the first permanent molars (FPMs) and usually related with hypomineralized incisors. Unfortunately, this condition affects the functions as well as the aesthetics of patients such as dental caries and post-eruptive enamel breakdown not only that, but it also creates treatment challenges to the dentists. Restorations in the cases of MIH seems to fail more often; there is few science-based literature to support clinical decisions on cavity design and material selection. The pervasiveness of MIH and the deficiency of literature regarding treatment modalities indicate the need for further researches to clarify proper guidelines for management of MIH cases and enhance the durability of restorations in affected teeth. The objective of the present study was to comprehensively review the various modalities presented in literature that were used to treat MIH in children.
