What if the gentle sound of a child’s snore concealed a disorder capable of altering growth, cognition, and vitality? Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) in children is not merely a nocturnal inconvenience, it is a pervasive, insidious condition that quietly erodes health, behavior, and quality of life.
This volume penetrates the intricate landscape of pediatric OSA, weaving together etiology, clinical manifestations, and avenues of intervention with clarity and authority. It compels the reader to recognize the indispensable role of pediatric dentistry in unveiling and addressing this often-misunderstood affliction.
Crafted for discerning dental and medical professionals, postgraduate scholars, and clinicians, this work is more than a guide, it is an urgent call to vigilance and early action, reminding us that safeguarding restorative sleep is tantamount to safeguarding the future of the child.
