| Popis: | STUDY OBJECTIVES: This scoping review allows physicians, researchers, and others interested in obstructive sleep apnea to consider effectiveness of oral appliances (OAs). The intent is to improve understanding of OA effectiveness by considering morphologic interaction in patients with obstructive sleep apnea. METHODS: Morphologic and biomechanical criteria for positional alterations of the mandible assessed success rates of OA appliances. Searches of databases (Medline, PubMed, The Cochrane Library, EBSCO) using terms: OA treatment effectiveness and positive and/or negative outcome predictors. Craniofacial predictors of OAs and obstructive sleep apnea biomechanical factors of anatomical traits associated with OA effectiveness were included. Databases searched radiographic cephalometric imaging for morphology/phenotypes and apnea-hypopnea index responses. Articles were excluded if title or abstract was not relevant or a case report. If the analysis did not report mean or standard deviation for apnea-hypoxia index, it was excluded. No language, age, or sex restrictions were applied. RESULTS: Analysis of 135 articles included in searched literature indicated alterations in musculature and pharyngeal airway structure through OA use. These alterations were individually unpredictable with wide variability 61.81% ± 12.29 (apnea-hypoxia index mean ± standard deviation). Morphologic variations as predictors were typically weak and idiosyncratic. Biomechanical factors and wide variations in the metrics of appliance application were unclear, identifying gaps in knowledge and practice of OAs. CONCLUSIONS: An integrated basis to identify morphologic and biomechanical elements of phenotypic expressions of sleep-disordered breathing in the design and application of OAs is needed. Current knowledge is heterogeneous and shows high variability. Identification of subgroups of patients with obstructive sleep apnea responding to OAs is needed.
