Abstract

Background: Molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH) is a congenital qualitative disorder of the enamel tissue. During examinations, clinicians may observe a range of enamel opacities during examinations. The aim of this study was to assess the knowledge and awareness of dental students in Poland regarding MIH.

Methods: This study was conducted among dental students who participated in scientific conferences for dental students in Poland. An electronic questionnaire was created for this purpose, accessible via a QR code.

Results: The respondents consisted of dental students from the first to the fifth year of study, including 98 fourth-year students and 76 fifth-year students. The students represented 10 medical universities in Poland. Of the 341 respondents, 256 (75.07%) stated that they were familiar with the term MIH, but only 61 (17.89%) correctly indicated the diagnostic criteria of MIH. The most frequently indicated condition resembling MIH was enamel hypoplasia, with 158 (46.33%) respondents identifying it.

Conclusions: Dental students at Polish medical universities have basic knowledge of MIH, but it is insufficient and needs to be improved during their educational training.

磨牙门牙矿化不足：波兰医科大学牙科学生调查。

背景：磨牙切牙低矿化（MIH）是一种先天性的釉质组织质量紊乱。在检查过程中，临床医生可能会观察到一系列的釉质不透明现象。本研究的目的是评估波兰牙科学生对MIH的了解和认识：这项研究的对象是参加波兰牙科学生科学会议的牙科学生。为此制作了一份电子问卷，可通过二维码进行访问：受访者为一年级至五年级的牙科学生，其中包括 98 名四年级学生和 76 名五年级学生。这些学生来自波兰的 10 所医科大学。在 341 名受访者中，有 256 人（75.07%）表示熟悉 MIH 一词，但只有 61 人（17.89%）正确指出了 MIH 的诊断标准。最常被指出的类似于MIH的情况是釉质发育不全，有158名（46.33%）受访者指出了这一点：结论：波兰医科大学的牙科学生对MIH有基本的了解，但还不够，需要在教育培训中加以改进。
