The aim of this article is to capture the influence of shortened tongue frenulum (ankyloglosia) on primary functions such as breathing, sucking, swallowing, as well as on food activitiesbiting and chewing. The publication is a review and is an attempt to combine the available professional literature (national and world) on the above topic, as well as to discuss the conclusions from the cited studies. One of the paragraphs is devoted to several cases of children with ankyloglossia and its impact on primary activities in these children. The article also includes own reflections and considerations from the literature and case description discussed in the publication, children with shortened sublingual frenulum.
Music is able to stimulate the human brain at different levels, resulting in greater durability of treatment results, as well as the overall health of patients is improved. The aim of the article is to present the use of cognitive neurological music therapy techniques in the treatment of acousticmnestic aphasia patients. In the theoretical part of the article, the language and communication deficits occurring in the acoustic-mnestic aphasia are described. The basic assumptions and mechanisms of neurological music therapy were also presented, as well as the neuromuscular therapeutic techniques were briefly characterized and divided into three groups due to the area of influence (sensomotor, speech therapy and cognitive). Next, a case study of a patient with acoustic-mnestic aphasia was presented. Based on the characteristics and description of linguistic and communication disorders of the patient, appropriate cognitive techniques of neurological musicotherapy were selected and their use in the therapy of the described patient was described.

Right hemisphere brain damage manifests itself in the language at the
level of not only expression but also reception. Utterances of people with right
hemisphere dysfunctions are often disorderly and illogical. As recipients, patients
with right hemisphere brain damage, for instance, interrupt their interlocutor’s
utterance, cannot understand jokes, mockeries, or ambiguous messages.
The paper describes language and communication defi cits arising from right
hemisphere brain damage and cases of patients suffering from right hemisphere
disorder. The data obtained in the course of examining people with right
hemisphere damage show that the most disturbed aspects of language include:
lexical and semantic processing, processing complex language information,
discourse, and prosody.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
