Summary

The aim of this prospective clinical study is to evaluate the association between the Apnoea Hypopnoea Index (AHI) and the type of malocclusion in pediatric patients with maxillary constriction. Malocclusion will be assessed through clinical examination and cephalometric analysis, which will also include an evaluation of the airway. Additionally, the study aims to assess potential changes in OSAS symptoms in patients undergoing orthopedic-orthodontic treatment with maxillary expansion. The AHI assessment will be conducted using nocturnal cardiorespiratory monitoring.
