Comparison of palatal dimension in children with obstructive and habitual mouth breathing
Obstructive mouth breathers exhibited the lowest palatal width, accompanied by the highest palatal height and depth when compared to habitual mouth breathers and nasal breathers. It is also evident that obstructive mouth breathers presented a deeper hard palate when compared to habitual mouth breathers and nasal breathers.
