  • Title: Microscopic study of enamel defects in deciduous teeth of infants of diabetic mothers.
    Author: Norén JG.
    Journal: Acta Odontol Scand; 1984 Jun; 42(3):153-6. PubMed ID: 6591676.
    Abstract:
    Ground sections of deciduous teeth from infants of diabetic mothers were examined in polarized light and by microradiography. Widened neonatal lines and subsurface lesions were the main findings in the enamel. Three teeth showed enamel hypoplasia in connection with the neonatal line. The widening of the neonatal line and the hypoplasias are related to the more frequent and more pronounced neonatal hypocalcemia occurring among infants of diabetic mothers.
