Severe forms of osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) are usually caused by mutations in genes that code for collagen Type I and frequently are associated with craniofacial abnormalities. However, the dental and craniofacial characteristics of OI caused by the p.Ser40Leu mutation in the IFITM5 gene have not been reported. We investigated a 15-year-old girl with severe OI caused by this mutation. She had marked deformations of extremity long bones. There were no clinical or radiological signs of dentinogenesis imperfecta, but one tooth was missing and several teeth were impacted. Cone beam computed tomography revealed a generalized osteopenic appearance of the craniofacial skeleton, bilateral enlargement of mandibular bodies, and areas of cortical erosions. The cranial base and skull showed a generalized granular bone pattern with a mixture of osteosclerosis and osteolysis. Sphenoid and frontal sinuses were congenitally missing. Cephalometric analysis indicated a Class III growth pattern. In this case, the IFITM5 p.Ser40Leu mutation did not affect tooth structure but was associated with deformities in craniofacial bones that resemble those in the other parts of the skeleton.
