BACKGROUND
Individuals with amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) often present with malocclusions, especially a dental or skeletal anterior open bite (AOB).
OBJECTIVES
To evaluate the craniofacial characteristics in individuals with AI.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
A systematic literature search was conducted with the PubMed, Web of Science, Embase and Google Scholar databases to identify studies relating to the cephalometric characteristics of individuals with AI, without any language or publication date restrictions. The grey literature was searched using Google Scholar, Opengrey and Worldcat. Only studies with a suitable control group for comparison were included. Data extraction and a risk of bias assessment were carried out. A meta-analysis was performed using the random effects model for cephalometric variables that were evaluated in at least three studies.
RESULTS
The initial literature search yielded 1857 articles. Following the removal of duplicates and a screening of the records, seven articles were included in the qualitative synthesis, representing a total of 242 individuals with AI. Four studies were included in the quantitative synthesis. The meta-analysis results showed that individuals with AI present a smaller SNB angle and larger ANB angle than those of control groups in the sagittal plane. In the vertical plane, those with AI present a smaller overbite and larger intermaxillary angle than those without AI. No statistically significant differences were found for the SNA angle when comparing the two groups.
CONCLUSIONS
Individuals with AI seem to present with more vertical craniofacial growth, leading to an increased intermaxillary angle and decreased overbite. This possibly leads to a more retrognathic mandible with a larger ANB angle due to an anticipated posterior mandibular rotation.
