Resumo

Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a hereditary condition which involves bone fragility, originating recurrent fractures. It affects both sexes, races and ethnicities equally, and its occurrence is estimated in 20 cases every 100,000 new births. The case presented relates to a 16-year-old female patient with an OI diagnosis who comes with a referral from her orthodontist due to both maxillary canines being impacted, with the direction of performing an exodontia of the left maxillary canine and a surgical-orthodontic treatment of the right maxillary canine. The literature is reviewed in order to determine the most relevant aspects of this disease, its oral manifestations and the surgical management of odontostomatological conditions considering their pharmacological treatment with biphosphonates.
