Sleep apnea risk and orthodontic issues in children

This study looks at the link between sleep apnea (pauses in breathing during sleep) and a narrow upper jaw (crossbite) in children ages 6 to 16. It may help understand if treating the jaw can improve sleep breathing.

This study looks at whether children with a certain teeth alignment issue (posterior crossbite) are more likely to have sleep apnea, a condition where breathing stops during sleep. If your child has this bite issue, participating could help us learn more about the connection.

This study looks at how jaw and palate treatments affect airflow through the upper airway in children with a specific bite and jaw shape. It may help researchers understand which treatments improve space for breathing and related pressure changes.

This study compares two different exercises (called oral reeducation) to see which works better for children who still have breathing problems during sleep even after getting their tonsils or adenoids removed. It helps kids breathe easier at night.

This study looks at how sleep apnea (pauses in breathing during sleep) may cause teeth grinding or clenching at night. It aims to understand the connection and may help find better treatments for both conditions.

This study looks at the tongue in children aged 4 to 17 who have sleep-disordered breathing (like snoring or pauses in breathing during sleep). The goal is to understand how the tongue might be related to these sleep problems, which could lead to better treatments.
