Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) is a hereditary disorder expressing a group of conditions that cause developmental alterations in the structure of enamel. This clinical case report describes the oral rehabilitation of a young adult female patient diagnosed with hypoplastic amelogenesis imperfecta with mutilated dentition. The main objective for the selected treatment was to enhance the esthetics, restoring masticatory function and eliminate the teeth sensitivity. Toothsupported overdenture is used as treatment due to patient’s financial constraints. Patient was satisfied with the esthetic and functional expectations.
