| Abstract: Molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH) is defined as a clinical appearance of systematic in origin causing hypomineralization affecting the first permanent molars (FPMs) and usually associated with hypomineralized incisors. Unfortunately, this condition causing dental complications that affect the quality of life to the affected patients such as dental caries and post-eruptive enamel breakdown not only these but also creating treatment challenges to the dentists. Restorations in MIH cases appear to fail frequently; there is little evidence-based literature to facilitate clinical decisions on cavity design and material choice. The high prevalence of MIH and the deficiency in literature regarding treatment modalities indicate the need for research to clarify proper guidelines for management of MIH cases and improve the durability of restorations in affected teeth. The objective of the present study was to comprehensively review the various modalities presented in literature that were used to treat MIH in children.
