Test Parameters & Specifications
Understanding Your Results
Positive for pathogenic variant
Confirms diagnosis of Amelogenesis Imperfecta Type 1H due to ITGB6 mutation. Genetic counseling and tailored dental management are recommended.
Negative for pathogenic variant
No mutations detected in ITGB6 gene. Clinical correlation is advised, as other genetic or environmental factors may be involved.
Variant of uncertain significance
A genetic variant was found but its clinical impact is unclear. Further testing or family studies may be needed.
Consult a healthcare provider if you or your child exhibit symptoms of Amelogenesis Imperfecta, such as discolored or weak teeth, or if there is a family history of the disorder.
Limitations
- ⚠May not detect all possible mutations in the ITGB6 gene.
- ⚠Variants of uncertain significance may be identified, requiring further evaluation.
- ⚠Test results should be interpreted in conjunction with clinical findings.
Risks & Considerations
- ●Minimal risks associated with blood draw, such as slight pain or bruising.
- ●No significant risks from the genetic test itself.
