Dental implants for patient with Dentinogenesis Imperfecta? Looking for experience and opinions?
Wed, 10/20/2010 - 08:03 — rmbenian
Dose anyone have any experience placing implants in a patient with dentogenesis imperfecta? Do you know of any contraindication for such a patient. In my opinion it should be fine, but I am not able to find any articles about the subject in specific to support my opinion.

Dentogenesis imperfecta
I have severeal pt all belonging to one family who have recieved Implant reconstructions, without a doubt this is the only way to restore these patients.
One family member has been restored for over 15 years post op without incident there are no special requirements just normal implant protocol.Do not try endodontics as this will fail the sooner you get these pt in implants the sooner they can live their lives with trouble free teeth.
orthodontics
i think there will be no contraindication by putting implants in dentinogenesis imperfecta. that post extraction healing occurs normaly .there is also nocontra indication in orho treatment ,becouse the bony cellulers turnout is normal during teeth movements
Dentinogenesis Imperfecta
Please try to rule out that it is not the type2 which is associated with osteogenesis imperfecta .
