Dynamics of salivary stress-related biomarkers in children with malocclusion and risk for sleep problems and sleep-disordered breathing: a cross-sectional study
Children at elevated risk for general sleep problems showed reduced salivary oxytocin and greater vertical skeletal divergence, whereas those at elevated SDB risk exhibited anteroposterior craniofacial differences without biomarker alterations.
