Objectives: to define the possible complications of oral surgery in childhood in patients affected by type 1 Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) and treated with bisphosphonates (BP). METHODS The study was conducted among 20 patients in childhood with an age range 8-14 (12 e 8 ) affected by OI. Patients were initially evaluated at the Policlinico Umberto I, University Hospital of Rome, Rare Disease Center Skeletal Dysplasia-Bone Metabolic Pathologies and after at the Policlinico Umberto I, University Hospital of Rome, Head and Neck Department, UOC Pediatric Dentistry. RESULTS From this experience, we showed that a proper patient management from the medical and dental point of view can protect these patients from the risk of post-operative problems, such as onj, soft tissue flogos, intraoral and extraoral fistulas, failure to heal the post-extractive alveolus, infections, post-operative pain and pathological fractures. The follow-up, ranging from a minimum of 2 years to a maximum of 5 years, have not demonstrated the presence of particular complications or healing defects. CONCLUSIONS The clinical experiences observed in these patients are encouraging because no postoperative complications have been observed compared to patients non-affected by OI.
