- Septum and turbinate procedures may fail when other airway restrictions remain. — Ankle Pinching, Rib Position, and Airway Constraints
- Midface development, jaw position, palate structure, and tongue function can influence upper airway function. — Ankle Pinching, Rib Position, and Airway Constraints
