Reduced mesiodistal tooth dimension in individuals with osteogenesis imperfecta: a cross-sectional study.

CONCLUSIONS: The mesiodistal tooth dimension in individuals diagnosed with OI is significantly smaller compared to healthy controls, which should be taken into consideration in the restorative treatment planning of individuals with OI, although the magnitude of the deviation is relatively small. The results on mesiodistal tooth dimensions of the present controls may be used as a standard for comparisons in future studies on tooth dimensions.
