Abstract:
Obstruction sleep apnea (OSA) syndrome is a frequent problem observed in 2% of females and 4% of male patients. It is considered as a public health problem regarding its high neuropsychological and cardiovascular morbidity. Precipitating factors include male gender, high blood pressure, obesity and maxillofacial morphological abnormalities. Even if Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) is the treatment of choice in OSA, stomatological orthesis and bimaxillary advancement surgery give excellent results and keep place within our therapeutic arsenal. Multidisciplinary management of SAOS patients enables us to deliver adequate and adapted therapy to each patient.
