Barriers, Benefits and Complications of Orthodontic Treatment in Patients with Epidermolysis Bullosa: A Patient-Reported Cross-Sectional Study.

Other barriers included distance to the treatment centre (42.6%), poor oral hygiene (27.7%) and poor oral health status (26.7%).

Patients with limited mouth opening perceived greater treatment benefit compared to those without this limitation (φ = -0.28, p = 0.0242), while an increasing age was associated with a reduced perception of treatment benefit (Cramér's V = 0.29, p = 0.0404).
