  • Title: Drooling, chewing and swallowing dysfunctions in children with cerebral palsy: treatment according to Castillo-Morales.
    Author: Limbrock GJ, Hoyer H, Scheying H.
    Journal: ASDC J Dent Child; 1990; 57(6):445-51. PubMed ID: 2147927.
    Abstract:
    About 23 percent of the sixty-eight children with cerebral palsy, studied at the Werner-Otto-Institute's Pediatric Rehabilitation Center, suffered from a spastic tetraparesis. About 19 percent suffered from an athetosis; about 20 percent from a hypotonia, including three with cerebellar ataxia. The remainder of the group had minimal sequelae of cerebral palsy; mental problems were predominant. Their orofacial dysfunctions were treated according to the therapeutic concepts of Castillo-Morales.
