Restrictive lingual frenulum as a phenotype for UARS and OSA
|
This presentation explains the role of the restrictive lingual frenulum to perpetuate the following phenotypes of obstructive sleep apnea: (1) pediatric sleep-disordered breathing, (2) upper airway resistance syndrome, (3) and adult obstructive sleep apnea related to tongue base collapse and/or maxillary hypoplasia. The tongue range of motion ratio (TRMR) frenulum screening tool will be presented. Case studies will be presented to demonstrate surgical technique and to underscore the importance of pre- and post-operative myofunctional therapy in the care of these patients.
