Malocclusion traits and oral health-related quality of life in children with osteogenesis imperfecta: A cross-sectional study.

CONCLUSIONS: Adolescents with OI and posterior open bites or crossbites have substantial self-reported functional limitations and worse oral symptoms, which warrants additional investigation and therapeutic trials in an attempt to improve the malocclusion. In addition, the authors found that the CPQ can be a useful tool in a clinical trial of orthodontic interventions in OI. PMID: 32593350 [PubMed - in process]
