Summary
The paper presents the results of a quantitative comparison of the occurrence of symmetrical and asymmetric maxillary constriction in a group of 106 pa-tients aged 14 to 36 years. It was found that asymmetric narrowing of the upper jaw was observed more often than symmetrical (70% and 30%, respectively). 56 pa-tients (52%) had complaints of difficulty chewing food, 43 (40.5%) had sleep disorders, 25 (23.6%) had diction disorders, 58 (54.7%) had nasal breathing disorders, 87 (82%) had changes in the configuration of the maxillo-facial- the facial area. Malocclusion was observed in all patients (Engl grade 2). The conclusion is made about the need for a multidisciplinary approach, early diagno-sis and treatment in order to prevent complications of a narrowed upper jaw.

Keywords: narrowing of the upper jaw, anomalies of the maxillofacial region, orthodontics, type 2 according to Engl.
