Abstract:   (19846 Views)

Enuresis during childhood disturbs children both physically and emotionally. It reduces their self-confidence and so causes many personal and social problems.Different ways of treating this problem have been suggested and carried out, but none of them have been a total success. But one way is to change from mouth breathing to nose breathing.Enuresis in 6 Patient out often was totally cured and in three other patients who's mouth breathing all altered to mouth- nose breathing it was reduced, approximately to the extended of a half.One who's mouth breathing was not subject to any change enuresis was not remedied either.On the whole, it could be concluded that the conversion of mouth breathing to nose breathing would solve enuretic difficulties to a certain extend.
