“…The interventions applied in the included studies were as follows: (a) functional appliances accompanied by lip sealing exercises, (b) orthodontic tongue crib/spur appliances in conjunction with chin cup orthopedic therapy, or alone, (c) surgical removal of nasopharyngeal lymphoid tissue and (d) muscle training protocols, combined or not with adenoids and/or tonsils removal and orthodontic appliances …”

“…Overall, all controlled clinical trials and two RCTs were high risk of bias, while the remaining RCTs were deemed as unclear (Figures and ). In particular, none of the included RCTs described any valid method for generation of random allocation sequence or allocation concealment, the basic principles of randomization.…”

The aim of this review was to evaluate available evidence on the effect of early orthodontic management and myofunctional treatment in the developing dentition children, on anterior open bite correction, as well as on normalization of patterns of mouth breathing, swallowing and tongue resting position and pressure. Electronic searches in MEDLINE, Cochrane and LILACS, without language restrictions were conducted. Additionally, unpublished literature was identified. Randomized controlled trials, or controlled clinical trials, comparing interventions applied to manage anterior open bite and other muscle functions such as breathing/swallowing pattern and tongue resting position and pressure, were considered. Quality assessment was based on the Cochrane Risk of Bias tool. Random effects meta-analyses were conducted to assess treatment effects. From the 265 initial search results, 15 articles were included in the review. Eight were randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and 7 were controlled clinical trials. Treatment outcomes comprised skeletal and dentoalveolar changes recorded cephalometrically, mouth posture and lip closure normalization, improvement of tongue resting position/pressure and modification of swallowing pattern. Quantitative synthesis was possible for only 2 of the included RCTs. There was no evidence to support bonded lingual spurs over banded fixed appliances for the correction of anterior open bite in mixed dentition children presenting nonnutritive oral habits at the onset of treatment (SMD: -0.03; 95%CI: -.81, 0.74; P = 0.94). Although early orthodontic management and myofunctional treatment in the deciduous and mixed dentition children appears to be a promising approach, the quality of the existing evidence is questionable.

“…Based on the clinical and endoscopic ENT examination performed by two otorhinolaryngologists in the first consultation, mouth breathing was confirmed and nasopharyngeal obstruction by adenoidal tissue was classified into one of three categories: mild (<50%); moderate (50-75%) and severe (>75%). Palatine tonsil hypertrophy was classified by mouth examination according to previously described guidelines [12].…”
