Listen Later


Join me for a summary looking into the increasingly popular

topic of paediatric obstructive sleep apnoea, a review of orthodontic treatments available, and how effective they are in this growing field of both medicine and dentistry. This episode is a summary of Alberto Capriglio’s lecture from
the AAO and Carlos Flores Mir’s lecture at the IOF earlier this year.

 

 

OSA - Defined upper airway dysfunction causing complete or

partial airway obstruction during sleep

 

Sleep = Slow wave sleep – constructive phase of sleep

(recuperation of the mind)

·     

Growth hormones secreted

·     

Glial cells within brain restored

·     

Cortical synapses increase in number – Moberget 2019

 

Outcomes to paediatric patients of SDB: (AASM)

·     

delays in development,  Poor academic performance, Aggressive behaviour,
attention- deficit/hyperactivity disorder, , emotional problems in adolescence

 

First line medical treatment – adenotonsillectomy 

·     

40% residual  OSA

 

 

 

Effect palatal expansion

1.       

Roof the mouth = base of the nose - Increase in
nasal airway volume - Reduction in OSA, if obstruction in naso-pharynx,

2.       

Short term reduction in OSA (not cure AASM)

a.       

20% improvement in AHI, 85% of cases Villa 2015

b.       

15% got worse by 20%

c.       

57.5% residual AHI greater than 1 - not
resolution

3.       

Caprioglio 2019 long term AHI return to initial
scores, from 7 to 5 long term

4.       

Change in metabolism when combined with Vit D3

a.       

Vit D3 with RME increases reduction in AHI,
sustained long term, Caprioglio 2019 AHI 61.9% Vs 35.5% long term

 

 

Expansion other outcomes -  school performance  Bariani 2024

·     

AJODO – RME improves academic performance –

o  

BEHAVOUR 1 of 8 parameters improved only for
academic performance  - change small 0.68

o  

COGNITIVE 1 in 8 improve  

 

 

Mandibular advancement

Move mandible forwards and open space behind the tongue – oropharynx

·     

Anatomical – increase size of oropharangeal
airway

·     

YAnyAn 2019 mandibular advancement for pOSA systematic review:  1.75 AHI reduction (CI) −2.07, −1.44)
– modest change

·     

However long term use required of the paediatric patient

 

 

Orofacial features in children with obstructive sleep

apnea.  Fagundes Flores-Mir 2022

o  

No craniofacial features specific to pOSA – ANB,

o  

However medical diagnosis through polysomnography
may under-estimate incidence,

o  

Broader diagnosis such as snoring, may
over-estimate OSA

 

AADSM 2024 – consensus statement

·     

Expansion

o  

Prevention: No consensus

o  

Management: No consensus

o  

Cure: Insufficient

·     

Mandibular advancement

o  

Prevention, management, cure – unclear
