Abstract
Background Class II malocclusion is a common dental condition in children, often associated with sleep disturbances. C-reactive protein (CRP) is a salivary biomarker that indicates inflammation and may be linked to sleep problems. This study aims to assess the levels of salivary CRP in children with sleep problems and Class II malocclusion before and after treatment with twin block therapy.
