Oral health-related quality of life in X-linked hypophosphataemia and osteogenesis imperfecta.

ABSTRACT: X-linked hypophosphataemia (XLH) and osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) are rare congenital disorders characterised by skeletal dysplasia. The two disorders may include dental anomalies potentially affecting individual well-being. The aims of study were (a) to assess the oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) in Danish adults with XLH or OI, and (b) to compare the results of the groups. A cross-sectional study including 35 adults with XLH, 56 adults with OI type I and 17 adults with OI types III-IV was conducted. The OHRQoL was assessed by the 49-item version of the questionnaire Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP). Summed domain scores (seven) were compared between XLH and OI groups. Prevalence of severe impact on OHRQoL (scores 3-4) was compared between groups. The median scores in XLH gro
