Dentine dysplasia has been known as exceedingly rare, congenital disease which cause the specific disformation of dentine. A son and a daughter, whose mother was already diagnosed as having this disease, were studied pathologically and biochemically in detail. Patients with teeth showing all of the clinical, radiographic, and pathological features of radicular dentine dysplasia (type I) have been found to have dense sclerotic bone. Biochemical analyses of the inorganic and organic components of dentine gave the following results: The inorganic component was preferred-oriented hydroxyapatite polycrystal. The Ca/P atomic ratio of 1.67, estimated by XRD, was not deficient in Ca, and agreed well with the theoretical value of stoichiometric hydroxyapatite. Most of the organic component could not be digested by pepsin and the collagen phenotype of the dentine was found to be type I. Examination of their general condition showed the patients to be suffering from osteosclerosis, which suggests the existence of a different type of dentine dysplasia, related to some general disorder.
