Amelogenesis imperfecta is a genetic disease affecting the tooth enamel in Parson Russell Terriers. It results in enamel that is dull, soft, and rough, leading to plaque buildup, gingivitis, and early tooth loss. The responsible mutation is found in approximately 9% of dogs.
This test is also recommended for Jack Russell Terriers as part of the breeding program established by the Flemish government (see official program).
