ABSTRACT
Mouth breathing in children are increasingly concerned by the physicians and the society. Incompetent lip closure can be classified as oral habit and pathological mouth breathing. Pathologic mouth breathing due to hypertrophy of adenoids and tonsils is often the cause of obstructive sleep apnea in children, which may lead to craniofacial deformities and other consequences. At present, there are many problems in the definition, diagnosis and treatment of mouth breathing, which need to be clarified.
