“…One of the most common manifestations observed in patients with DS is the generalized muscular hypotonia, especially regarding the masticatory and oropharyngeal muscles, resulting in difficulties when speaking, swallowing, and mastication [1,5]. Patients with DS may experience alterations in the stomatognathic system due to the presence of masticatory muscle dysfunction (as a result of hypotonia) and skeletal developmental abnormalities, e.g., a reduced size of the maxillary and mandibular bones and severely inhibited sagittal development in the midface region, which may result in malocclusion [1,4,6,7]. The most common dental and occlusal disorders in individuals with DS are open bite, crossbite, class III malocclusion, hypodontia, and microdontia [1,8,9].…”
