This adaptation promotes, in development, behaviors that hinder nutrition, such as oral refusal or aversion, limiting oral motor experiences and compromising the performance of these skills (23) .…”

“…( 1 ) Its etiology is unknown, and there is a possible relation with unilateral masticatory activity, dental malocclusion, temporomandibular joint dysfunction, bruxism, or emotional alterations.

( 3 ) It is important to make differential diagnoses with tumors or inflammatory processes in muscles, bones and salivary glands.…”
