MIH (Molar Incisor Hypomineralization), a qualitative reduction of enamel mineralization, became a world wide burden in pediatric dentistry. The prevalence of the phenomenom increased during the last decades from 3% to 13.5% worldwide. In israel the prevalence is almost 18% and an increase of 2% was observed between the young and older group. In hypomineralized molars a significant reduction in mineral content was observed. The aim of the present study was to analyze the proteomics of permanent and deciduous molars affected by hypomineralization. A sample of 5 permanent molars affected by MIH was compared to 5 healthy teeth ans another sample of 5 deciduous molars affected by dmh was compared to 5 healthy teeth. The results showed that almost 370 proteins were detected and 37 of them showed a significant statistical difference between the affected and the healthy groups. PCA analysis showed distinct grouping between affected molars and healthy teeth in both permanent and deciduous molars. This study shows that there is a significant difference between the proteins content in MIH and DMH enamel in comparison with healthy enamel
