Q

Type of osteogenesis imperfecta characterized by less bone but still good bone, majority of OI patients

A

Type I

25
Q

Type of osteogenesis impercta characterized by weak bone and lots of fractures, more severe, and DI

A

type III and IV

26
Q

What is one of the most significant aspects of osteogenesis imperfecta?

A

Dentinogenesis imperfecta

27
Q

If one OI member of the family have DI:

A

all the other OI members of that family will have DI as well

28
Q

Discuss the prevalence of DI in the following types of OI patients:

Type 1:
Type 4:
Type 3:

A

1: 20%
4: 40-60%
3: 100%

29
Q

In what disease discussed is all of the teeth NOT affected in the same manner?

A

dentinogenesis imperfecta

30
Q

Down syndrome can be characterized with underdevelopment or hypoplasia of the mid face region meaning:

A

smaller and retrusive maxilla contributes to class III malocclusion

31
Q

Is the maxilla or mandible smaller due to Down syndrome?

A

maxilla (mandible is normal)

32
Q

The open bite in a patient with down syndrome is due to:

A

Thick tongue pushing on the teeth (not genetics)

33
Q

The condyles are considered:

A

growth sites

34
Q

Condition in which one condyle is absent creating significant malocclusion:

A

condylar dysplasia

(the muscles still all the patient to have semi-function)

35
Q

A lot of syndromic patients have significant:

A

cranial base alterations

36
Q

Position and projection of the upper and lower jaws rely on:

A

41
Q

44
Q

prognathic jaw:

A
