Research Abstract

Predicting which patients will respond to oral appliance (OA) therapy in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is not yet possible, although there are several studies of practice parameters predicting treatment outcome. We report herein additional data and findings for the purpose of predicting OA treatment outcome using nasendscopy. These results suggest that nasendoscopy of the velopharynx is more helpful than examining the oro-hypopharynx to predict oral appliance treatment outcome. Even severe OSA patients with clear airways that widened by advancing the mandible responded positively to OA therapy ; on the contrary, patients with narrowed airways that did not widen by advancing the mandible did not respond to OA therapy.
