pubmed:abstractText |
Mandibular advancement splints (MASs) can effectively treat obstructive sleep apnea (OSA); however, no validated and reliable prediction method for treatment outcome currently exists. The efficacy of MAS may relate to anatomic factors, including craniofacial size and upper-airway soft-tissue volume and anatomic balance between them. We aimed to assess whether craniofacial and oral measurements are associated with MAS treatment outcome.
