BACKGROUND: A study is made of posterior crossbite in deciduous dentition and its possible association to extrinsic factors (bad oral habits). METHODS: A total of 1168 Spanish children between 3 and 6 years of age were included in the study. Exploration of the oral cavity was performed to assess the presence of crossbite (uni- or bilateral and/or functional), and a questionnaire was administered to the parents or caregivers to determine the presence of bad oral habits and their duration...

Allergic rhinitis and asthma are two frequent respiratory clinical entities commonly encountered in pediatric clinical settings. Previous studies have evaluated the influence of these two conditions on oral health, but conflicting results have been obtained. The present cohort study aimed to record oral findings ( i.e. , caries, plaque, gingival inflammation and mouth breathing) in 50 pediatric patients diagnosed with allergic rhinitis and/or asthma in an Italian pediatric setting and to compare them to a control group of 50 healthy children...

DATA SOURCES: This study was a secondary data analysis of a parent study that was initially designed to assess saliva and exhaled breath for passive e-cigarette vapour exposure in children. The initial study collected patients using convenience sampling of the local community between July 2018 and February 2019 and ethical approval was obtained prior to commencing. DATA EXTRACTION AND SYNTHESIS: Eligibility criteria for the parent vapers in the original study included self-reported daily use of e-cigarettes in the presence of children via the use of a questionnaire...

The Tübingen Palatal Plate (TPP) is a minimally invasive yet highly effective functional orthodontic treatment for upper airway obstruction in infants with Robin Sequence (RS). It consists of a palatal plate to cover the cleft and a velar extension that shifts the root of the tongue forward. We review our practical experience with this approach. First, upon admission, our local orthodontists perform an (3-D) intraoral scan of the maxilla. Based on the scan data, the TPP is manufactured in a semi-digital workflow...

ABSTRACT
Introduction: Allergy is a systemic inflammation; therefore, although the allergic symptom may be seen in a specific organ system, the effects of this inflammation may be seen in other organs. IL4, IL5 and IL13 are the major Th2 cytokines and e-cadherin is an epithelial barrier protein. The objective of this research was to assess indicators of inflammation specific to Th2 responses and proteins related to the protective barrier of the airway's inner lining. These assessments were conducted using exhaled breath condensate, which provides insights into the local airway conditions of children suffering from food allergies...

BACKGROUND: Articulation disorder decreases the clarity of language and causes a decrease in children's learning and social ability. The demand for non-face-to-face treatment is increasing owing to the limited number of therapists and geographical or economic constraints. Non-face-to-face speech therapy programs using serious games have been proposed as an alternative. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy of home therapy on logopedic and phoniatric abilities in children with articulation disorder using the Smart Speech game interface...

BACKGROUND: Partial Tonsillectomy (PT) is an alternative method to treat sleep disordered breathing (SDB) and/or obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The current guidelines do not differentiate it from traditional tonsillectomy. Thus, children younger than 3 years old undergoing PT are admitted for surveillance similar to traditional tonsillectomy due to possible postoperative complications. The aim of this study is to assess the risks of PT in children 3 years old and younger, compared to older children...

Objectives: Enlarged adenoids can lead to obstruction of the nasopharyngeal airway and subsequent oral respiration. Oral breathing can cause dry mouth, dehydration in gingival tissue, and resistance to plaque accumulation. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of tonsillectomy on oral health status, salivary pH and flow rate, and common complications caused by tonsillar hypertrophy in children. Materials and Methods: An analytical before-and-after study was conducted on 60 children aged 5-12 years who required tonsillectomy...

Navigating Surgical Complexities associated with a case of Adenotonsillectomy in Arnold Chiari Malformation type 2. Arnold-Chiari or Chiari malformations (ACM) describe a group of deformities of the posterior fossa and hindbrain, which includes the cerebellum, pons, and medulla oblongata. Sleep-disordered breathing is a known but poorly evaluated comorbidity in patients with ACM. Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) in children is mainly caused by tonsillar and adenoid hypertrophy, and surgical resection of the palatine tonsils and adenoids is indicated depending on OSA severity...

BACKGROUND: The frequency of adenotonsillar hypertrophy in mouth-breathing children when compared to the average found in the general population is considered to be higher. Mouth breathing is considered as one of the causative factors for tonsillitis in children. Through continuous irritation on tonsillar wall, tonsils swell up and inflammation develops. PURPOSE: The purpose of the study is to evaluate Streptococcus pyogenes count using colony-forming units (CFUs) and N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfatase side chain marker on ELISA (enzyme linked immunosorbent assay) in mouth breathers and to establish its correlation with pharyngeal airway space pre- and post-oral screen appliance therapy...

Adenotonsillar hypertrophy has been well-acknowledged as the primary instigator of sleep-disordered breathing in the pediatric population. This condition spans a spectrum, from typical age-related growth that the immune system influences to persistent pathological hypertrophy. Reduction in air spaces, metabolic changes, neurobehavioral alterations, and chronic inflammation characterizes the latter form. As the go-to treatment, adenotonsillectomy has proven effective. However, it is not a guarantee for all patients, leaving us without reliable predictors of treatment success...
