OBJECTIVE: To verify the associations between sagittal and vertical skeletal discrepancies, changes in upper airways, and breathing pattern in children and adolescents with Angle Class III and Class III subdivision malocclusions.

METHODS: Eighty-five children and adolescents with a mean age of 9.5 ± 1.74 years were selected. Cephalometry assessed the sagittal relationship (AO-BO measurement), facial types (Ricketts VERT index), nasopharynx, and oropharynx. An otorhinolaryngologist analyzed the breathing pattern and upper airway obstruction during anamnesis, physical examination, anterior rhinoscopy, and nasofibroscopy. Medical records were also reviewed. For statistical analysis, ordinary one-way ANOVA, Kruskal-Wallis (Tukey's post-hoc), unpaired t-test, Pearson's correlation, chi-square, and Fisher's exact tests (p < 0.05) were used.

RESULTS: The nasopharyngeal cephalometric dimension and pharyngeal tonsil hypertrophy were associated, whereas the oropharyngeal cephalometric dimension and palatine tonsils hypertrophy were not. Sagittal discrepancies were associated with septum deviation, while facial type was associated with inferior turbinate and palatine tonsils hypertrophy. However, facial type was not associated with breathing pattern, septum deviation, and pharyngeal tonsils hypertrophy.

CONCLUSIONS: Sagittal discrepancies and type of malocclusion were not associated with breathing pattern and changes in upper airways, except for the severity of septum deviation and Class III malocclusions, which were associated with large sagittal discrepancies. Although the facial types analyzed presented signs of airway obstruction, the highest prevalence of inferior turbinate and palatine tonsils hypertrophy were found in patients with dolichofacial type.
