Help with a repaired cleft lip/palate patient who is still drooling
Thursday, 05 January 2012
I need help with a repaired cleft lip/palate patient who is still drooling. I've been working with him for several months - lip strengthening, resting tongue posture, and more. I feel like I'm spinning my wheels trying to get him to habituate lips together. He can do this without much tension...his lower lip, to me is very "droopy" and weak. What can I do?
