The prevalence of MIH has increased and as clinicians we notice in our clinical practice. With an aetiology that we do not know exactly and many hypotheses trying to explain it, the treatment of hypomineralized molar is a real challenge for the dentist.
There is a variety of treatment alternatives, the choice and proper management of each of them is decision of the clinician and will depend on the clinical situation of our patients.
Different treatment alternatives for the hypomineralized molar will be reviewed including prefabricated restorations zirconia crowns. In this presentation, we will focus on the restorative part of the severely destroyed molar and when the molar extraction is not a viable alternative.
