Fig 6. Histological findings in individuals with varying expressivity of dentinogenesis imperfecta (DGI).

Fig 6

A. Ground section illustrating normal dentin. B. Ground section of a lower deciduous molar from an individual with OI type I and clinical DGI only in the deciduous dentition. Variation in width and branching of some dentin tubuli (arrows). No cell lacunae in the body of the dentin or layering of dentin are seen. C. Ground section of a lower permanent molar from an individual with OI type III and DGI. Cell lacunae* and branching of dentin tubuli** (arrows). The extent of hyaline dentin void of dentin tubuli is extensive compared to A and B.
