Genetic defects of the enamel

U radu je prikazana suvremena klasifikacija genetskih defekata cakline i ukazano na potrebu korištenja kliničkih, genetskih i histoloških kriterija u njihovom dijagnosticiranju. Ukazano je na važnost ovih kriterija posebice u prepoznavanju i utvrđivanju fenokopija genetskih abnormalnosti cakline. Istaknuta je važnost detaljnog uzimanja obiteljske anamneze i izrade heredograma za ispravno dijagnosticiranje nasljednog defekta, kao i za mogućnost davanja genetskih informacija.A presentation is made of the current classification of genetic enamel defects, whose diagnosis should be based on clinical, genetic and histologic criteria. These criteria are of a great importance, especially in the recognition and definition of the phenocopies of genetic enamel defects. The diagnosis of this hereditary defect demands a large body of genetic information which can be obtained by a detailed family history and heredogram
