“…These diseases radiographically appear as reduced bone opacity and pseudofractures. An increase in mandibular angle and maxillary micrognathia have been reported [85]. Periodontal disease and aplasia/ hypoplasia of cementum have been also reported in these patients [85].…”

“…Auch eine assoziierte Parodontalerkrankung ist möglich. Diese resultiert aus einer Aplasie oder Hypoplasie des Wurzelzements, der den Zahn in sein Zahnfach einbettet [42]. Die Manifestationen einer Rachitis sind in Wachstumszonen wie der Wachstumsfuge leichter zu erkennen.…”

“…Looser zones or pseudofractures from deposition of unmineralized osteoid are seen as bilateral and symmetric lucent bands that typically appear in locations similar to those of stress fractures (41). Cortical thinning, decreased trabeculation, and pseudofractures-seen as symmetric bandlike lucencies in relation to arteries-have been described at cone-beam CT. Associated periodontal disease due to aplasia or hypoplasia of the cementum, which provides anchorage of the tooth in its alveolus, may be seen (42).…”
