Summary

This was a prospective randomized controlled clinical trial that aimed to evaluate the efficacy of three treatments for obstructive sleep Apnea OSA:

1. Conventionally constructed mandibular advancement device (MAD).
2. Digitally constructed mandibular advancement device (CAD CAM).
3. Uvulopalatopharyngeoplasty (UPPP).

Conditions

  • Apnea

Interventions

DEVICE

Conventional mandibular advancement device

With a vacuum mahine (Biostar, NY) a 2-mm-thick hard, clear resin sheet was adapted to the cast. The excess material was cut, borders were trimmed and smoothed. Maxillary mandibular casts were mounted by a protrusive the interocclusal record. The appliances were re-placed on the mounted casts to be splinted to form a Monoblock MAD by autopolymerizing acrylic resin at the premolar -molar area.

DEVICE

CAD CAM mandibular advancement device

3D models for the stone casts were constructed with laser scanning machine (accuracy \<20 µm; D500, 3shape). Maxillary and mandibular casts were rescanned in the achieved 75% advancement position and monoblock device was designed by CAD (computer-aided design) with 3D software (3-matic; Materialise) and printed by

PROCEDURE

Uvuloplatopharyngeoplasty UPPP

uvulopalatopharyngeoplasty UPPP were performed by the same ENT surgeon under GA.
