Understanding Your Family’s Dental Health: ENAM Gene Amelogenesis Imperfecta Testing
When dental problems seem to run in your family, it can feel overwhelming and confusing. You might be noticing patterns of severe tooth sensitivity, unusual enamel appearance, or early dental decay affecting multiple generations. Our ENAM Gene Amelogenesis Imperfecta Type 1B NGS Genetic DNA Test provides the clarity and answers you need to take control of your family’s dental health journey.
What This Test Reveals About Your Dental Health
This advanced genetic test specifically examines the ENAM gene, which plays a crucial role in enamel formation. When mutations occur in this gene, it can lead to Amelogenesis Imperfecta – a condition where the enamel doesn’t develop properly, resulting in teeth that are discoloured, sensitive, and prone to damage. Our Next Generation Sequencing technology provides the most accurate analysis available, giving you definitive answers about your genetic risk.
Who Should Consider This Important Test?
This test is particularly important if you or your family members experience:
- Family history of unusual tooth discolouration or texture
- Severe tooth sensitivity that affects daily life
- Early or frequent dental cavities despite good oral hygiene
- Teeth that appear yellow, brown, or translucent
- Enamel that chips or wears down unusually quickly
- Multiple family members requiring extensive dental work
If these patterns sound familiar, genetic testing can provide the answers you’ve been seeking.
