BACKGROUND: Gingival recession (GR) in malposed tooth in association with bone dehiscence and/or fenestration poses a challenge for successful root coverage treatment. Lateral closed tunnel (LCT) technique is particularly useful in isolated GR in mandibular anterior region, where the shallow vestibular depth prevents tension-free coronal mobilization of tissues. METHODS: Twenty patients with GR associated with tooth malposition were treated using a combined orthodontic-periodontic approach with a torquing auxiliary spring followed by LCT technique...

INTRODUCTION: Treatment of skeletal class II growing patients often requires the use of functional appliances, aimed at promoting mandibular advancement. Among these, Herbst appliance is recommended for its effectiveness, efficiency, and reduced need for compliance. Despite its skeletal favourable effects, well-known dental compensations can occur, especially when the appliance is not used close to the pubertal peak: upper incisors retroclination, lower incisors proclination, upper molars distalization and lower molars mesialization could reduce the overjet needed for a proper mandibular advancement...

OBJECTIVE: Oral appliances (OA) are the recommended first-line option for mild-to-moderate obstructive sleep apnea (OSA)-hypopnea. However, there is a lack of evidence to compare the effectiveness of OA in different severities of OSA. The purpose of this study was to investigate the therapeutic effects of preferred OA (tongue retention devices [TRD] and mandibular advancement device [MAD]) in different severities of OSA.

BACKGROUND: The relation between orthodontic treatment and temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) is under debate; the management of TMD during orthodontic treatment has always been a challenge. If TMD symptoms occur during orthodontic treatment, an immediate pause of orthodontic adjustments is recommended; the treatment can resume when the symptoms are managed and stabilized. CASE SUMMARY: This case report presents a patient (26-year-old, female) with angle class I, skeletal class II and TMDs...

Introduction  Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is defined as intermittent partial or complete collapse of the upper airway during sleep. It is a common condition in childhood, with an incidence ranging from 1.2% to 5.7%, and it can harm several aspects of children's life, such as cognitive, metabolic and cardiovascular functions, among others. There are treatment options, such as adenotonsillectomy, myofunctional therapy, mandibular advancement appliances (MAAs), rapid maxillary expansion, and positive airway pressure devices, but there is still doubt about which method is more suitable for the treatment of OSA in children...

BACKGROUND: To compare efficacy of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) and oral appliance (OA) in management of various grades of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). METHODS: Thirty polysomnography diagnosed cases of OSA were divided into three groups based on baseline apnea hypopnea index (AHI) as follows: group 1: mild OSA (AHI = 5-14.9), group 2: moderate OSA (AHI = 15-29.9), and group 3: severe OSA (AHI >30) with 10 patients in each group. Half of the patients in each group were randomly allocated to CPAP or OA therapy, and crossover of therapy was performed after two months...

AIM-BACKGROUND: In the treatment of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), oral appliances are now being recognized as a valuable alternative to continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). Various static imaging techniques of the upper airways allow for assessment of bone and soft tissue structures. However, static images do not capture dynamic airway characteristics. The aim of this paper was to review 4D imaging techniques in patients with OSA. METHODS: PubMed/MEDLINE, Web of Science and Embase were systematically searched for studies published before June 2022...

INTRODUCTION: Fixed functional appliances are widely used for the treatment of retrognathic mandibles in skeletal class II malocclusion. The primary objective of the present investigation was to evaluate and compare the treatment effects induced by PowerScope (American Orthodontics, Sheboygan, WI) and AdvanSync2 (Ormco, Orange, CA). The hypothesis posited that there were no notable disparities in the therapeutic impacts of the two appliances.

STUDY OBJECTIVES: Use of a mandibular advancement appliance (MAA) is an effective treatment option for mild-to-moderate obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). MAA is well-tolerated but undesirable effects may be observed over time. The present systematic review aimed to assess the effect of MAA use on oral and periodontal health in patients with OSA. METHODS: MEDLINE (PubMed), Cochrane, and Scopus were searched for randomized and non-randomized controlled trials (RCTs, NRCTs), cohorts, and case-control studies reporting on side effects of MAA treatment in OSA patients during a follow-up of at least 6 months...

Performance criteria were overall efficacy (reduction of OSA events to less than 10 per hour); efficacy for patients with severe OSA (reduction of OSA events to less than 20 per hour and a 50% improvement); and compliance (the rate of continuation of treatment after at least a one-year follow-up, or, conversely, the rate of discontinuation of treatment due to material-related adverse events or side effects after one year)...

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a recurrent partial or complete obstruction of the upper airway during sleep caused by narrowing or collapse of the pharyngeal wall. It leads to microstimulation and oxyhemoglobin desaturation, resulting in sleepiness and loud snoring. OSA negatively affects the cardiovascular system and may contribute to neurocognitive impairment. The aim of this systematic review is to evaluate the effectiveness and efficacy of appliance therapy in obstructive sleep apnea. The effectiveness was assessed by using the Apnea Hypopnea Index (AHI)...

INTRODUCTION: Compensatory mouth breathing, caused by nasopharyngeal obstructive diseases, is the main cause of hyperdivergent mandibular retrognathia in children. Such deformities require effective growth guidance before pubertal growth peaks. The traditional mandibular advancement device, twin block (TB), can guide the forward development of the mandible. However, the side effect of increasing the vertical dimension of the lower facial third, worsens the facial profile of children with divergent growth trends...
