Is your child snoring loudly at night, breathing through their mouth, or waking up looking tired despite a full night’s sleep? These could be signs of a common but often overlooked condition in children — enlarged adenoids or paediatric sleep apnea. At Rog Nidan ENT Clinic, Janakpuri, Delhi, Dr. Pranshu Mehta specialises in paediatric ENT care for children across West Delhi.

Signs Your Child Needs an ENT Evaluation

• Loud snoring or noisy breathing during sleep
• Mouth breathing — especially during the day
• Recurrent ear infections or hearing difficulty
• Repeated tonsil or throat infections (more than 4–5 times a year)
• Nasal congestion that doesn’t clear
• Restless sleep or witnessed breath-holding
• Daytime drowsiness, difficulty concentrating, or behavioural changes
• Delayed speech or hearing concerns

What Are Enlarged Adenoids?

Adenoids are lymphoid tissue at the back of the nose. In children, they can become enlarged due to repeated infections or allergies. Enlarged adenoids block the nasal airway, leading to mouth breathing, snoring, and in some cases, obstructive sleep apnea. Left untreated, they can affect a child’s facial development, dental arch, and cognitive function.

The Rog Nidan Advantage — Integrated ENT + Dental Care

What makes Rog Nidan Clinic unique is the combination of ENT and dental expertise under one roof. Dr. Pranshu Mehta evaluates the ENT aspects of your child’s airway — adenoids, tonsils, nasal passages — while Dr. Paridhi Gupta (MDS Orthodontist) can assess the dental and jaw development impact of prolonged mouth breathing. This integrated approach helps identify and address airway problems comprehensively.
