However, the etiologic role of hypertrophied adenoids and tonsils in developing an aberrant dentofacial growth is not clear, yet. The present investigation attempted to study the incidence of maxillary pos...

متن کاملUltrasonographic evaluation of effectiveness of circumoral muscle exercises in adenotonsillectomized children.
Mouth breathing due to obstructive adenoids and tonsils has deleterious effects on craniofacial morphology especially on dentition and dental arches. Reports confirm that removal of nasal obstruction, adenoids and tonsils has not given beneficial development of circumoral musculature. Use of muscles to correct malocclusion was first recommended by Alfred Paul Rogers. This study highlights the i...
متن کاملMuscular, functional and orthodontic changes in pre school children with enlarged adenoids and tonsils.
INTRODUCTION Hypertrophy of the adenoids and palatine tonsils is the second most frequent cause of upper respiratory obstruction and, consequently, mouth breathing in children. Prolonged mouth breathing leads to muscular and postural alterations which, in turn, cause dentoskeletal changes. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to determine muscular, functional and dentoskeletal alterations in c...
