Abstract
Numerous medical conditions occur in patients with or without dentofacial anomalies and may affect voice and/or wind instrument performance. Interaction between such medical conditions and dentofacial abnormalities may compound performance difficulties. Common medical conditions include infection and inflammation, sinusitis, allergy, respiratory tract infection, autoimmune disease, obesity, aging, hearing loss, respiratory dysfunction, endocrine and neurologic disorders, psychological impairment, structural lesions of the larynx, and others. Practitioners and performers should be familiar with these conditions and their implications when evaluating and treating performers with dentofacial anomalies.
