In other words, the cause of the collapse is not only functional: it is anatomical. In these cases, <strong>CPAP acts as a patch, but does not solve the problem, which is why it is considered a palliative treatment rather than a curative one<\/strong> in the medical field.<\/p>\n<p><strong>At the Maxillofacial Institute, we offer the definitive solution for patients who desire a permanent cure for sleep apnea<\/strong>, either because they cannot tolerate CPAP or because they are not achieving the expected results: orthognathic surgery (maxillomandibular advancement).<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Who is the surgery indicated for?<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&#8211; Patients with moderate or severe sleep apnea<br \/>\n&#8211; Poor tolerance to CPAP<br \/>\n&#8211; Evident mandibular or maxillary retrusion<br \/>\n&#8211; Young people with apnea and without other chronic conditions<\/p>\n<p>CPAP is not a universal solution.
