In orthodontics, questionnaire-based assessments facilitate the identification of factors associated with dentoalveolar anomalies and myofunctional disorders. Adenoid hypertrophy (AH) is a significant contributor to the development of these conditions. However, inadequate postoperative follow-up may allow myofunctional disorders to persist or progress, despite surgical treatment. A comprehensive evaluation of factors affecting general and oral health may improve diagnostic accuracy, treatment outcomes, and interdisciplinary collaboration. This study aimed to assess the condition of children after surgical treatment for AH, determine the need for orthodontic intervention and associated risk factors, and evaluate the extent of interdisciplinary collaboration in identifying and managing myofunctional disorders through a questionnaire survey and medical record analysis.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>MATERIALS AND METHODS:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This retrospective observational questionnaire-based study included 220 children aged 5\u20138 years who had undergone surgery for AH.
