Breastfeeding is the best practice to ensure proper nutrition, correct growth of the craniofacial complex and overall health of the baby with optimal breathing, feeding and sleeping functions. Many mothers face breastfeeding problems due to the baby's difficulty in latching, especially if the lingual frenum is restricted. Early detection and understanding of some of the root causes of those difficulties will lead to an early intervention, thus getting the babies on the right tract of their full potential of growth and development.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is closely related to SARS-CoV and uses angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 as its cellular receptor. In early 2020, reports emerged linking CoV disease 2019 (COVID-19) to olfactory and gustatory disturbances. These disturbances could be attributed to virus-induced damage to olfactory neurons or immune responses, thereby affecting sensory functions.

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is now recognized to be a multifactorial disorder caused by several endotypes that differ between individuals and patient populations. In order to understand the current clinical implications of OSA endotypes, this review aims to examine the current state of play in endotype measurements, endotype modification and their impact on clinical outcomes/prognosis. In summary, the field has developed multiple techniques to measure the endotypes over the last few decades.

Department of Pediatric and Preventive Dentistry, Bharati Vidyapeeth (Deemed to be University), Dental College and Hospital, Navi, Mumbai, Maharashtra, India.
Unlabelled: An 11-year-old female patient with developing class II division 1 malocclusion having retrognathic mandible and crowding in the lower arch, horizontal growth pattern, with convex profile, hyperactive mentalis muscle, positive visual treatment objective (VTO) in cervical vertebral maturation indicator (CVMI) stage 4 was planned to be treated using modification of conventional twin block appliance. Though a wide variety of myofunctional appliances like activator, Bionator, and Frankel appliances can be delivered to the patient, twin block appliance being a mechanofunctional appliance is routinely preferred by operators due to simplicity of its design and construction in comparison to other appliances. One of the biggest challenges in management of growing patients with skeletal class II malocclusion is the compliance of patients in wearing the myofunctional appliances.
