“…1 The mouth-breathing (MB) syndrome occurs when nasal breathing is substituted by a breathing pattern in which the nose is supplemented by oral respiration. 2 It may be related to genetic factors, incorrect oral habits or nasal obstruction of variable severity and duration. Children who are chronic mouth breathers may develop speech disorders, facial deformities and abnormal body posture and inadequate positioning of the teeth.…”

Objective: To investigate the etiology, main clinical manifestations and other concurrent findings in mouth-breathing children aged 3 to 9 years and resident in the urban area of Abaeté (MG), Brazil. Methods:This study was based on a representative random sample of the town population, of 23,596 inhabitants.Clinical diagnosis of mouth-breathing was defined as a combination of snoring, sleeping with mouth open, drooling on the pillow and frequent or intermittent nasal obstruction. Children with a clinical diagnosis of mouth-breathing underwent nasal endoscopy, allergy skin tests and X ray of the rhinopharynx, full blood tests, eosinophil counts, total IgE assay and fecal parasitology. Data were analyzed using SPSS ® version 10.5. Results:The main causes of mouth-breathing were: allergic rhinitis (81.4%), enlarged adenoids (79.2%), enlarged tonsils (12.6%), and obstructive deviation of the nasal septum (1.0%). The main clinical manifestations of mouth breathers were: sleeping with mouth open (86%), snoring (79%), itchy nose (77%), drooling on the pillow (62%), nocturnal sleep problems or agitated sleep (62%), nasal obstruction (49%), and irritability during the day (43%). Conclusion:Certain clinical manifestations are very common among mouth-breathing children. These manifestations must be recognized and considered in the clinical diagnosis of mouth-breathing.J Pediatr (Rio J). 2008;84(6):529-535: Prevalence, mouth-breathing, allergic rhinitis, hypertrophic adenoids, hypertrophic tonsils, deviated nasal septum.

“…In the present investigation, in order to diagnose breathing pattern, 2 tests were carried out, and their results are different and complementary to each other 21,22 : the Glatzel's metal plate 23,24 associated with water dwelling in the mouth for 3 minutes 12 . These tests are fundamental, especially when one tries to analyze exclusive oral breathers, who are identified through the vapor distribution test, which helps differentiate individuals with mixed breathing.…”

“…Individuals with respiratory disorders are more prone to having repetitive episodes of colds, spasmodic cough and hoarseness. They may also develop other disorders, such as: cranial-facial deformities, malocclusion, dry lips, sleepy face, spots around the eyes, speech disorders, postural and gait changes, which all interfere in school performance, professional performance and social relations 38,39,21,22 . Moreover, they have a greater tendency in developing caries and periodontal problems because of the drying in their oral cavities, which without proper lubrication becomes more prone to bacteria and biofilm 40 .…”

Breat hing represents one of the vital functions of the organism, and its unbalance causes some series of alterations in several organs and systems. Aim: Verify the influence of socio-economic and demographic factors in determining breathing patterns. Study design: cross-sectional. Materials and Methods: there were 143 students in the sample, with ages ranging from 9 and 10 years, from two schools, public and private, in the city of Recife, Pernambuco. Breathing patterns were established through two tests: Glatzel Plate (Steam) and water time in the mouth. Socio-economic factors were evaluated through questionnaires with nine questions each. Statistics were carried out by means of the ChiSquared test or Fisher's Exact test and the significance level used was of 5%. Results: Oral breathing prevalence was of 55.2%, higher among females (57.7%) and in public schools (67.2%).Lack of medical care (62%), less use of medications (56.6%), parents with educational levels lower than high school, divorced parents (66%), students that do not live with their parents (68.7%) and homes with only one room (72%), in all of those situations, oral breathing signs were more prevalent. Only school type had significant association with the breathing pattern. Conclusion: High levels of oral breathing without differences concerning gender and age. With the exception of school type, there was no association between breathing pattern and socio-economic factors.

“…Individuals with allergic rhinitis may have enlarged adenoids, tonsils, the tissue coating the nasal concha and deviated septum, leading to changes in the breathing pattern for a predominantly mouth breathing. This, depending on its duration, can cause functional, structural, pathological, occlusal and behavior alterations 5,6 . Within this context, the aim of this study is to determine the occurrence of allergic rhinitis, oral or oronasal breathing and orofacial alterations in asthmatics.…”

“…Similar results were obtained in a survey conducted in the city of Belo Horizonte, which showed that among 560 children and adolescents with asthma, allergic rhinitis diagnosis was confirmed in 65% Allergic rhinitis is an important etiological factor of mouth breathing 10,19,20 . Papers related to the prevalence of mouth breathing are few in the literature and present percentages ranging around 58-75% 6 . As for the breathing mode, expressed in Table 1, we obtained a higher prevalence of nasal breathing (67.1%) compared to oral (32.9%).…”

OBJETIVO: determinar a ocorrência de rinite, respiração oral e alterações orofaciais em adolescentes asmáticos. MÉTODO: estudo do tipo transversal, realizado com 155 adolescentes asmáticos de 12 a 15 anos e de ambos os sexos, atendidos no Instituto Materno Infantil Professor Fernando Figueira. O levantamento de dados consistiu de duas etapas: a primeira para análise dos prontuários dos pacientes e da realização de dois testes para avaliação adicional da função respiratória. Sendo um com o auxílio do espelho de Glatzel e o outro com a contagem do tempo de permanência da água na boca. A segunda por meio de exame clínico para identificação das alterações orofaciais. RESULTADOS: a frequência de rinite alérgica foi elevada (80,6%), não existindo diferença significante entre o sexo feminino (80,9%) e o masculino (80,5%). Quanto ao padrão de respiração 32,9% dos asmáticos apresentaram respiração oronasal. As alterações faciais mais frequentes para o sexo masculino foram: olheiras (93,1%), palato ogival (82,8%), lábios ressecados (70,1%), selamento labial inadequado (77,0%), olhos caídos (62,1%) e face alongada (57,5%). O sexo feminino apresentou as maiores frequências para as seguintes características: olheiras (91,2%), palato ogival (85,3%), selamento labial inadequado (67,6%), lábios ressecados (63,2%) face alongada (66,2%) e lábio superior estreito (57,4%). CONCLUSÃO: em adolescentes asmáticos a frequência de rinite alérgica foi alta, bem como a ocorrência de respiração oral e de alterações faciais.
