    Author: Bigenzahn W.
    Journal: Laryngorhinootologie; 1990 May; 69(5):231-6. PubMed ID: 2191676.
    Abstract:
    The differential diagnosis of myofunctional, articulational and specific ENT-disorders is a phoniatric domain. The symptoms of orofacial dysfunctions are presented and aetiological factors of myofunctional disorders of the orofacial region are discussed for children. In many cases the surgery of ENT-disorders (e.g. adenotomy, tonsillectomy, frenulotomy) makes favorable conditions for logopedic oriented myofunctional therapies according to the age.
