The impact of enzyme replacement therapy on the oral health manifestations of hypophosphatasia among children: a scoping review
Abstract
Purpose A scoping review to describe the use of enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) in the form of asfotase alfa to decrease the severity of oral manifestations in children with hypophosphatasia (HPP). Methods Six databases were searched using keywords and index terms related to "hypophosphatasia," "children," and "enzyme replacement therapy." Duplicates were removed and two independent reviewers screened the titles and abstracts to identify articles for full-text review. Extracted data was summarised narratively. Results The systematic search identified 3548 articles, with 171 suitable for full-text review and a final 22 that met inclusion criteria. Enzyme replacement therapy generally resulted in a reduction in the presence and severity of oral manifestations of HPP. However, numerous studies failed to report specific details regarding the nature of oral health outcomes and there were reported cases of further loss of primary teeth. Conclusions The available evidence suggests that that ERT in the form of asfotase alfa for HPP in infants and young children leads to improved oral health outcomes. It is recommended that the outcomes are improved with earlier initiation of ERT. Further, well-designed clinical research is required to assess oral health improvements and decreased morbidity associated with the early loss of teeth.

“For example, in the case of HPP, enzyme replacement therapy has shifted care from purely symptomatic management to treatment that significantly benefits teeth still undergoing mineralization, improving their density and structure (Schroth et al. 2021; Smart et al. 2023).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
