Mouth breathing (RO) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are multifactorial disease and share the same etiological factors. The recognition and treatment of OSA and RO during childhood is important because delay in diagnosis can lead to behavioral disorders, cognitive impairment and cardio respiratory problems that will have a negative influence on adult quality of life. Objective: This series of studies was performed to identify orthodontic risk factors in the development of RO and verify the role of functional appliances in the treatment of both the RO as OSAS. Method: To achieve this goal there were three original studies: 1. Dentofacial characteristics of oral breathers in different ages: a retrospective case-control study; 2. Randomized study comparative clinical effects activator Rossi in the treatment of class II in preadolescent patients 3 Functional Appliances in the Treatment of Sleep Apnea in Children: A Systematic Review. Results: This series of studies have shown that Angle Class II, small retruded mandible and dolichocephalic pattern are factors that may increase the risk of RO in the child. The Rossi orthopedic device is an effective treatment for class II and dentoskeletal problems and can be a form of treatment for OSA in children. Conclusion: skeletal and dental characteristics may influence negatively on the installation conditions such as RO and OSAS. The isolated treatment of the signs and symptoms of these diseases does not lead to the best results for them are multifactorial and multidisciplinary approach should be to the overall treatment of the signs and symptoms.
