Abstract | OBJECTIVE: METHODS: RESULTS: SNB angle changed from 64.6 degrees to 71.9 degrees, post airway space (PAS) from 5.4mm to 13.2 mm, apnea and hypopnea index (AHI) from 58.4 to 7.6, lowest saturation of oxygen (LSAT) from 66% to 87%. All the differences showed statistical significance (P < 0.001). The average mental horizontal advancement (MHA) was 14.3 mm and its correlation coefficients with deltaSNB, deltaPAS, deltaAHI, and deltaLSAT were 0.36, 0.62, 0.34, and -0.14, respectively.
