Assessment of Screening for Nasal Obstruction among Sleep Dentistry Outpatients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Abstract: Oral appliances (OA), a common treatment modality for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), are not suitable for patients with nasal obstruction. Rhinomanometry, the gold standard technique to assess nasal airway resistance, is not readily available in sleep dentistry clinics. We demonstrate the use of a portable lightweight peak nasal inspiratory flow (PNIF) rate meter to objectively assess nasal airflow and utilized the Nasal Obstruction Symptom Evaluation (NOSE) scale to subjectively assess nasal obstruction in 97… Show more

“…Nasal obstructions occur in approximately 64% of OSA patients, most of whom exhibit anatomical variations that decrease treatment efficacy (11) . Furthermore, it has been reported that OSA patients have significantly lower nasal airflow compared to healthy participants (12) . Thus, we treat patients with nasal obstructions by placing a breathing hole in MADs to enable mouth breathing.…”
