The dental professional is exposed to complex challenges daily, posed by molar incisor hypomineralisation (MIH). These range from understanding its etiology through to determining the most effective strategies for clinical management of the problem. Beyond any doubt, the choice of the diagnostic scoring system to be used for recording the condition is included among these challenges. To a certain degree, this is understandable since the development of specific diagnostic tools for recording the occurrence of MIH takes place parallel to the ongoing discoveries about the problem. Therefore, the aim of this chapter is to present different MIH scoring systems that have previously been proposed in the literature for detecting MIH and discuss their applications, advantages, and limitations.
口腔专业人员每天都会面临复杂的挑战,其中包括低龄儿童龋(MIH)。这些挑战涵盖了从了解其病因到确定最有效的临床管理策略。毫无疑问,选择用于记录该疾病的诊断评分系统也属于这些挑战之一。在一定程度上,这是可以理解的,因为用于记录 MIH 发生的特定诊断工具的开发与对该问题的不断发现是同步进行的。因此,本章的目的是介绍文献中之前提出的用于检测 MIH 的不同 MIH 评分系统,并讨论它们的应用、优点和局限性。
