This document discusses treatment options for nasal obstruction in children. The first line of treatment is removing the cause if known and monitoring growth. For severe cases, adenoidectomy with or without tonsillectomy is commonly used to treat nasal obstruction. Early intervention may reverse craniofacial changes, while delayed intervention may require orthognathic surgery later in life. Rapid maxillary expansion is used to widen the maxillary arch and improve nasal patency, especially in patients ages 8-20. After expansion therapy, lower molars are corrected and any overexpansion or diastema in the front teeth can be addressed with fixed braces.
