Dentinogenesis imperfecta

27
Q

A

All the other OI members of that family have DI as well

28
Q

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

Type I:
Type IV:
Type III:

A

Type I= 20%
Type IV= 40-60%
Type III= 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 midface region, meaning:

A

Smaller & 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 seen in a patient with down syndrome is due to:

A

The large/thick tongue pushing on the teeth, not genetics

33
Q

Condylar are:

A

Growth sites

34
Q

Condition in which one condyle is absent, creating significant malocclusion:

A

Condylar dysplasia

-we see the muscle compensations in this situation to keep patient semi-functional

35
Q

A lot of syndromic patient have significant:

A

Cranial base alterations

36
Q

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

A

Cranial base
