Dental Profile of Brazilian Patients with Rare Skeletal Genetic Disorders: Clinical Features and Associated Factors. Healthcare (Basel) 2024; 12:1046. [PMID: 38786456 PMCID: PMC11121670 DOI: 10.3390/healthcare12101046] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/14/2024] [Revised: 05/16/2024] [Accepted: 05/17/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024] Open
Abstract
The aim of this study is to compare the dental profiles of Brazilian patients with rare genetic skeletal disorders and normotypical patients. A cross-sectional study was carried out with 210 individuals aged between 2 and 54 years old [105 with rare diseases (Mucopolysaccharidosis/MPS n = 27 and Osteogenesis Imperfecta/OI n = 78) and 105 without rare diseases] and their parents/caregivers. The parents/caregivers answered a questionnaire about individual aspects of their child and the dental profile was identified from questions related to dental history and the presence/absence of dental problems. The patients' oral cavity was also examined by three examiners for dental caries, malocclusion, gingivitis, and dental anomalies. The average age of individuals with a rare disease was 14.1 years (±12.2) and the median was 9.5 years. Participants who had already used the public health system (SUS) dental care services had a 2.24 times higher chance of belonging to the group with a rare disease (OR = 2.24; 95% CI: 1.07-4.89). Patients with rare diseases are 14.86 times more likely to have difficulty receiving dental treatment (OR = 14.86; 95% CI: 5.96-27.03) and 10.38 times more likely to have one or more dental problems (OR = 10.38; 95% CI: 1.95-35.17). Individuals with rare disorders have a greater history of difficulty in accessing dental treatment, using the SUS, and were diagnosed with more dental problems compared to normotypical individuals.

Abstract
PURPOSE Adult idiopathic condylar resorption (AICR) mainly affects young women, but generally accepted diagnostic standards are lacking. Patients often need temporomandibular joint (TMJ) surgery, and often jaw anatomy is assessed by CT as well as MRI to observe both bone and soft tissue. This study aims to establish reference values for mandible dimensions in women from MRI only and correlate them to, e.g., laboratory parameters and lifestyle, to explore new putative parameters relevant in AICR. MRI-derived reference values could reduce preoperative effort by allowing physicians to rely on only the MRI without additional CT scan. METHODS We analyzed MRI data from a previous study (LIFE-Adult-Study, Leipzig, Germany) of 158 female participants aged 15-40 years (as AICR typically affects young women). The MR images were segmented, and standardized measuring of the mandibles was established. We correlated morphological features of the mandible with a large variety of other parameters documented in the LIFE-Adult study. RESULTS We established new reference values for mandible morphology in MRI, which are consistent with previous CT-based studies. Our results allow assessment of both mandible and soft tissue without radiation exposure. Correlations with BMI, lifestyle, or laboratory parameters could not be observed. Of note, correlation between SNB angle, a parameter often used for AICR assessment, and condylar volume, was also not observed, opening up the question if these parameters behave differently in AICR patients. CONCLUSION These efforts constitute a first step towards establishing MRI as a viable method for condylar resorption assessment.

Abstract
The correct diagnosis is fundamental for the appropriate treatment to be employed in a particular pathology. The best treatment is not the one that solves only local problems, fragmenting the patient, and therefore, it is necessary to integrate the entire systemic condition of the individual before initiating any local treatment. This context inevitably requires dentistry to participate in a multidisciplinary approach, where the role of the dentist is expanded in concepts that encompass ethics, human dignity, and professional valorization. This article describes a clinical case of a patient with mucopolysaccharidosis type I, whose treatment of cystic lesions present in the mandible was exclusively performed through marsupialisation. The objective of this study is to demonstrate, within the complexity of this rare syndrome, the difficulties of diagnosis and the need for evaluation of the patient beyond the limits of the oral cavity, as well as to report two cases of large dentigerous cysts, surgically treated conservatively through marsupialisation, without the need for re-approach for enucleation and without recurrences over a 20-year period.

Abstract
Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPSs) and mucolipidosis II and III (ML II and III) often manifest with orofacial (progressive) abnormalities, which may have a major impact on quality of life. However, because these patients have multiple somatic health issues, orofacial problems are easily overlooked in clinical practice and available literature on this topic solely consists of case reports, small case series, and small cohort studies. The aim of this systematic review was to gain more insight in the nature and extent of orofacial abnormalities in MPS, ML II, and III. A systematic review of all previously published articles addressing orofacial abnormalities in MPS, ML II, and III was performed. Both clinical studies and case reports were included. Outcome was the described orofacial abnormalities, subdivided into abnormalities of the face, maxilla, mandible, soft tissues, teeth, and occlusion. The search resulted in 57 articles, describing orofacial features in 340 patients. Orofacial abnormalities were present in all subtypes of MPS, ML II, and III, and consisted of thickened lips, a hypoplastic midface, a high‐arched palate, hypoplastic condyles, coronoid hyperplasia, macroglossia, gingival hyperplasia, thick dental follicles, dentigerous cysts, misshapen teeth, enamel defects, and open bite. Orofacial abnormalities are present in all subtypes of MPS, ML II, and III. As orofacial abnormalities may cause complaints, evaluation of orofacial health should be part of routine clinical care.

Early enzyme replacement therapy prevents dental and craniofacial abnormalities in a mouse model of mucopolysaccharidosis type VI. Front Physiol 2022; 13:998039.

Abstract
Mucopolysaccharidosis VI (MPS VI) is a hereditary lysosomal storage disease caused by the absence of the enzyme arylsulfatase B (ARSB). Craniofacial defects are common in MPS VI patients and manifest as abnormalities of the facial bones, teeth, and temporomandibular joints. Although enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) is the treatment of choice for MPS VI, the effects on the craniofacial and dental structures are still poorly understood. In this study, we used an Arsb-deficient mouse model (Arsbm/m) that mimics MPS VI to investigate the effects of ERT on dental and craniofacial structures and compared these results with clinical and radiological observations from three MPS VI patients. Using micro-computed tomography, we found that the craniofacial phenotype of the Arsbm/m mice was characterized by bone exostoses at the insertion points of the masseter muscles and an overall increased volume of the jaw bone. An early start of ERT (at 4 weeks of age for 20 weeks) resulted in a moderate improvement of these jaw anomalies, while a late start of ERT (at 12 weeks of age for 12 weeks) showed no effect on the craniofacial skeleton. While teeth typically developed in Arsbm/m mice, we observed a pronounced loss of tooth-bearing alveolar bone. This alveolar bone loss, which has not been described before in MPS VI, was also observed in one of the MPS VI patients. Interestingly, only an early start of ERT led to a complete normalization of the alveolar bone in Arsbm/m mice. The temporomandibular joints in Arsbm/m mice were deformed and had a porous articular surface. Histological analysis revealed a loss of physiological cartilage layering, which was also reflected in an altered proteoglycan content in the cartilage of Arsbm/m mice. These abnormalities could only be partially corrected by an early start of ERT. In conclusion, our results show that an early start of ERT in Arsbm/m mice achieves the best therapeutic effects for tooth, bone, and temporomandibular joint development. As the MPS VI mouse model in this study resembles the clinical findings in MPS VI patients, our results suggest enzyme replacement therapy should be started as early as possible.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) are a group of rare metabolic diseases characterized by a wide spectrum of symptoms including progressive condylar resorption. AIM The aim of this study was to quantify the severity of condylar involvement in MPS I individuals in comparison with a group of non-MPS individuals and to describe how condylar changes may vary among the different types of MPS. DESIGN Fifty panoramic radiographs of MPS patients (13.4 ± 6.2 years) with MPS I (n = 14), MPS II (n = 2), MPS IV (n = 8) and MPS VI (n = 2) were compared with forty panoramic radiographs of non-MPS individuals. The severity of condylar resorption was evaluated using a qualitative score (grades 0-3) and using the ratio of condylar height to ramus height (CH: RH). RESULTS All MPS I and VI individuals showed pronounced bilateral degenerative condylar resorption. In contrast, individuals with MPS II and IV exhibited heterogeneous findings. The quantification of condylar height to ramus height revealed that CH: RH was significantly decreased in MPS I as compared to that of non-MPS individuals (P < .001). In contrast, the CH: RH ratios of MPS II and IV showed great variability. CONCLUSION Mucopolysaccharidoses subtypes differ with regard to the severity of condylar resorption.
