Amelogenesis imperfecta is an unusual hereditory disorder affecting both primary and permanent dentition. We present a rare case of hypocalcified auto-somal recessive amelogenesis imperfecta occuring in primary dentition in a 7-year-old girl with a family history of consanguineous marriage. Clinical and radiological examination revealed discoloration and hypoplasia of enamel with easy chipping affecting both maxillary and mandibular dentition.
