Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the association between dentinogenesis imperfecta (DI) and genetic variants among patients with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI). Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study. This study included 31 children with OI aged 2 to 19 years. Clinical examination and X-ray imaging were used to detect the presence of DI, while genome sequencing was performed to identify gene mutations associated with OI. Results: Variants related to collagen type I encoding genes (COL1A1, COL1A2) accounted for the majority at 86,5%. The prevalence of DI was 38,7%. We found that 13/14 variants in the COL1A1 and COL1A2 genes responsible for DI occurred within the triple helical region. A higher incidence of DI (66,7%) was observed in variants affecting the Gly-X-Y tripeptide. Conclusion: There is a strong association between DI and variants causing glycine substitution. The majority of variants causing DI are predominantly located in the triple helical region.
