Bad habits related to the oral cavity are behaviors that are repeatedly and spontaneously carried out by someone and are abnormal in the oral cavity. One of these bad oral habits is mouth breathing. Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is when an individual experiences sleep-disordered breathing with partial or total obstruction of the airway. The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea in mouth breathers. The study was conducted using the rapid review method of articles describing the prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea in mouth breather patients. The literature search used the keyword and the Boolean Operator in Pubmed, Cochrane, Scopus, and Google Scholar and followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-analysis (PRISMA) protocol. A total of 6 relevant articles that met the inclusion criteria were reviewed. One study examined the prevalence of OSA in patients with isolated CL/P, while five studies provided an explanation of the symptoms or risk factors for obstructive sleep apnea. The prevalence rate of obstructive sleep apnea shows a high variation among the included studies. This study shows that the prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea in mouth breathers ranges from 1.2% to 55%. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
