Name Time Method Main Objective: Do bisphosphonates alter the skeletal response to mechanical stimulation in children with osteogenesis imperfecta?;Secondary Objective: Does Osteogenesis Imperfecta bone respond to mechanical stimulation at all?<br>And if so, how?;Primary end point(s): Change in P1NP in response to 1 week of whole body vibration, following 6 weeks of risedronate at a dose of 1mg/kg/week.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 15 to 18 months for total study duration; each individual patient will be studied over a period of 99 days.
