It is most commonly discussed in the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and related airway obstruction. The goal is to help keep the lower throat (hypopharyngeal) airway more open during sleep. Dentistry may intersect with it through sleep screening, oral appliance therapy, and multidisciplinary airway care."}
