Efeitos da terapia com a expansão rápida maxilar na síndrome da apneia obstrutiva do sono
Resumo:
Obstructive sleep apnea and maxillary atresias are increasingly discussed, as there is a causal relationship between them, and the proposed treatment is by means of rapid maxillary expansion, being of great importance to analyze early. The objective is to manifest the effects of the expansion in the correction of atresias and crossbites with a consequent improvement in the signs and symptoms of the apnea syndrome and in the quality of life. The preliminary exploratory study included selecting articles from databases such as Pubmed, Scielo, Cpaps, Pediatrics, Science direct, Archives of Healts, in addition to conclusion work and the Google platform. Craniofacial abnormalities can predispose to OSAS, due to the reduction of air space that makes breathing difficult, in addition to insufficient space for the tongue, which results in inadequate craniofacial growth, this is justified by the close relationship between the oral cavity and the respiratory system, and with these characteristics it is possible to identify clinical signs such as snoring and to wake up with a dry mouth frequently, by sleeping with your mouth open. We concluded with the expansion, that the opening of the medial palatal suture displaces the walls of the cavity, increasing the volume and decreasing its resistance, thereby facilitating the passage of air through the nose and improving the position of the tongue, that is, there is an improvement in the signs and symptoms and quality of life in mild to moderate cases, requiring further study in severe cases and in which the growth spurt has already been overcome.
