PREVALENCE AND POSSIBLE ETIOLOGICAL FACTORS OF MOLAR-INCISOR HYPOMINERALIZATION IN CHILDREN AGES 7 TO 9 YEARS IN PRIMARY SCHOOL IN BINH MINH TOWN, VINH LONG PROVINCE 2021-2022
Main Article Content
Abstract
Background: Molar-incisor hypomineralization (MIH) was defined by Weerheijm in 2003 as a qualitative enamel defect impacting at least one first permanent molar tooth and very often permanent incisors. Knowledge in etiological factors would help in the implementation of prevention procedures. Objectives: The study's aims were as follows: 1. To determine the proportion and classification of MIH; 2. To evaluate the etiological factors of MIH in students aged 7-9 years in Binh Minh town, Vinh Long province, 2021-2022. Materials and method: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 608 parents and their students in primary school aged 7-9 years in Binh Minh town, Vinh Long province 2021-2022. Results: MIH was found in approximately 26.6% of students aged 7-9 years. The most common MIH was IH (32.72%), followed by MIH (19.14%). MIH risk factors include: Proteinuria in pregnancy, hypertension, and preeclampsia in the mother. Disease in children from birth to age thirty, including colds and flu, respiratory infections, hospitalization for pneumonia, surgery, and dental caries. Conclusion: MIH was currently a concerning problem in pediatric dentistry, and more research is needed to determine its potential etiological factors and prevention.
