Description
Summary:Objective: To evaluate the changes in the pharyngeal spaces, after the intervention with S.N.1, in a group of children with sleep-related breathing disorders (DRS).Materials and methods: A not randomized clinical trial was done. Comparisons between a sample of 17 children skeletal class II for mandibular deficiency and 5 children skeletal class I, between 7 and 10 years of age, with some grade of clinical symptoms of DRS that were attended in the early orthodontics clinic of the Santo Tomas University in Floridablanca and in a private orthodontic clinic. For everyone of children’s sample were made and installed a Simöes Network 1 (S.N.1). Lateral x-rays were taken in vertical and in supine dorsal position. Cephalometric measurements of the pharyngeal spaces were made pre and post intervention. Spearman index was used to determine the range of correlation of the registrations inter-appraiser. The database in Excel was exported to Statistical Product and Service Solutions (SPSS) version 11.0 for their final analysis. They were carried out descriptive analysis, comparisons with chi2 for discreet variables, t-test for continuous variables, and analysis of variances, considering an alpha of 0.05.Results: There was not difference among the skeletal classes with relationship to the symptoms of obstruction of the airway during the dream. Pre-intervention supine x-rays, showed a significant decrease of the pharyngeal spaces. Significative increment was observed in the superior pharyngeal space in vertical and supine position and the medium pharyngeal space in supine position, postintervention.Conclusions: The modified S.N.1 is effective in the amplification of the oropharynx, in this children’s sample with DRS.
