The question of whether nose breathing can correct the shape of the face may refer to whether the shape of the face can be corrected by nose breathing after the appearance of adenoidal facies. Normally after a change in the shape of the face, breathing through the nose alone cannot correct the facial appearance.
Normal people breathe through their nose when they sleep and in their daily life. For those who breathe through the mouth for a long time, the teeth and jaws will become deformed and the face shape will change. Common causes of mouth breathing include enlarged adenoids and tonsils, deviated nasal septum, and malocclusion of teeth, which need to be treated, such as removal of adenoids and tonsils, and corrective surgery for deviated nasal septum.
Normal nasal ventilation may be restored after the cause is resolved. Oral and maxillofacial surgery or orthopedics can be consulted to correct maxillofacial deformities by maxillofacial orthopedic surgery such as mandibular advancement or jawbone amputation.
It is recommended to consult a regular hospital in a timely manner after the appearance of facial changes, to clarify the cause of the disease and the extent of the disease, and to follow the doctor’s instructions to choose standardized treatment.
