“…Appealing study topics include the expansion of the classifications of deglutition (Peng et al, 2004;Ovsenik et al;Bertolini et al); the causes of atypical deglutition and its consequences (Cheng et al, 2002); diagnostic methods (Cayley et al; Bibby) age at its onset, and treatment methods.…”

“…The mean age of the control group (normal deglutition) and the experimental group was 9.46 years and 10.05 years, respectively. To define the control and experimental groups an initial test forced opening method was conducted (Peng et al, 2003(Peng et al, , 2004Graber et al) by three senior orthodontists simultaneously, defining by consensus to which group the teleradiography of the child should belong. The sample size was determined to obtain the appropriate power level.…”

“…By placing the hands on the masseters it is possible to observe the presence or absence of contraction and to observe the ascendant movement of the hyoid bone under the thyroid cartilage. The participation of the perioral muscles is also observed, as well as whether the swallowing is loud, if there is a retraction movement with the head, the presence of any signal which characterizes child swallowing (Peng et al, 2003(Peng et al, , 2004Ovsenik et al;Bertolini et al). For a variety of reasons that so far remain incompletely explained, 'infantile swallowing' may continue beyond the replacement of the deciduous teeth.…”

“…However, it is then considered as a dysfunction or abnormality because of its association with certain dental malocclusions and facial growing alterations (Peng et al, 2003;Graber et al, 1985). Such deglutition is classified as atypical (Peng et al, 2004;Ovsenik et al, 2007;Bertolini et al, 2003).…”

“…The movements of the tongue during swallowing may be clinically assessed, asking the child to swallow liquids, semi-solids or solids or even only saliva to observe the protrusion of the tongue with the lips half-open or, if necessary, with lips opened with the fingers (forced opening method) (Peng et al, 2003(Peng et al, , 2004. By placing the hands on the masseters it is possible to observe the presence or absence of contraction and to observe the ascendant movement of the hyoid bone under the thyroid cartilage.…”

evaluation of the airway space and hyoid bone in children with atypical deglutition: correlations study. Int. J. Morphol., 30(1):341-346, 2012. SUMMARY:Although there is a close relationship between swallowing and breathing are no studies that relate to atypical swallowing radiographic anatomy of the airway space and its possible correlation with the radiographic position of the hyoid bone. The aim was to evaluate the possible correlation with the radiographic position of the hyoid bone and airway space in lateral radiographs of children with atypical deglutition. Using cephalometric analysis on lateral teleradiographs, the distances of H-MP (hyoid to mandibular plane) and H-T (hyoid to tuber) were Spearman's correlation analysis was performed with PAS (airway space) in two groups: the experimental group with atypical deglutition and the control group normal deglutition. Both groups included subjects in mixed dentition stage. The variable T-H had statistically significant correlation with PAS (0.0286) and the variable MP-H had significant correlation with variable PAS (0.0053). Our results show that advanced positive correlation of the radiographic position of the hyoid bone to the airway space only in the group of normal swallowing. The lower airway in patients with atypical swallowing, causing changes in tongue posture which leads to change in the position of the hyoid bone.

Patients with neuromuscular disorders often present with swallowing difficulties due to oral phase problems and pharyngeal residue after swallow. It is important to assess the underlying pathology and cause of the swallowing disturbance in this patient group, such as dystrophic changes in oral and masticatory muscles. This allows for more patient-tailored recommendations, for example optimal compensation strategies to maintain function for longer. Ultrasound can show structural changes caused by dystrophy or denervation of muscles, detect involuntary movements such as fasciculations, and provide dynamic video images of tongue motion during swallowing attempts. This article, based on the authors' extensive experience with ultrasound in neuromuscular disease, explains the concepts of oral muscle ultrasound and its proven value in assessing neuromuscular mastication and swallowing problems. As a patient-friendly and portable technique, we advocate its use as a standard tool for analyzing neuromuscular dysphagia. Clin. Anat. 30:183-193, 2017. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
