Abstract OBJECTIVES. The aim of this study was to reevaluate the implication early diagnosis chronic adenoid syndrome and tonsillar hypertrophy in prophylaxis control facial dental deformities children. MATERIAL AND METHODS. authors conducted a prospective on 42 paediatric patients with admitted ENT Orthodontic Departments “Sf. Spiridon” Emergency Hospital Maria” Paediatric Department, Iasi, treated collaboration orthodontic logopaedic specialists, follow-up improvement symptomatology morphofunctional deficiencies. RESULTS.

Furthermore, we present complications due (rhinosinusal ear-related diseases, sleep apnea), as well progression these cases after interdisciplinary approach. CONCLUSION. Chronic adenoiditis increase incidence malocclusion children, causing changes length shape upper jaw mandible, resulting maxillofacial deformities.
