“…The results from this study indicate significant improvements, among others, in saliva control after the NDT-Bobath method was applied. Another examination aimed to determine if Kinesio Taping (KT) and oral-motor training (OMT) influence drooling in children with intellectual disabilities [ 36 ]. The therapy was applied for muscles to orbicularis oris, supra-hyoid, and masseter muscles, and the results showed a significant reduction in drooling post-intervention ( p < 0.001).…”

“…The therapy was applied for muscles to orbicularis oris, supra-hyoid, and masseter muscles, and the results showed a significant reduction in drooling post-intervention ( p < 0.001). There was also a Drooling Quotient Assessment (DQ) used to diagnose the drooling as it appears [ 36 ]. Similar therapy, based on strengthening the orbicularis oris and expiratory muscle, was conducted in Parkinson’s disease patients and, likewise, has a positive effect and reduced drooling [ 22 ].…”

(1) Background: Muscle tension around the head and neck influences orofacial functions. The data exist concerning head posture during increased salivation; however, little is known about muscle tightness during this process. This study aims to investigate whether or not any muscles are related to problems with eating, such as drooling in individuals with cerebral palsy; (2) Methods: Nineteen patients between the ages of 1 and 14 were examined prior to the physiotherapy intervention. This intervention lasted three months and consisted of: relaxing muscles via the strain-counterstrain technique, functional exercises based on the NeuroDevelopmental Treatment-Bobath method, and functional exercises for eating; (3) Results: the tone of rectus capitis posterior minor muscle on the left side (p = 0.027) and temporalis muscle on the right side (p = 0.048) before the therapy, and scalene muscle on the right side after the therapy (p = 0.024) were correlated with drooling behavior and were considered statistically significant. Gross motor function was not considered statistically significant with the occurrence of drooling behavior (p ≤ 0.05). Following the therapeutic intervention, the frequency of drooling during feeding decreased from 63.16% to 38.89% of the total sample of examined patients; (4) Conclusions: The tightness of the muscles in the head area can cause drooling during feeding.

“…Awan et al (27) found that drooling severity were reduced more significantly in the group that received combined intervention of KT plus OM exercises than in the other group that received KT alone in 48 CP children with age range from 4 to 8 years old and assessment occurred by using (DSFS). In a recent study, Mokhlesin et al (28) looked at how KT training added to OM training affected drooling in kids with intellectual disabilities. The research group underwent regular OM training along with KT of the orbicularis oris, supra-hyoid, and masseter muscles, whereas the control group underwent fictitious OM training.…”

Background: Children with cerebral palsy (CP) frequently have sustained drooling, which leads to feeding difficulties and social affection. Oral motor (OM) exercises and kinesio taping (KT) are treatment options described for management of drooling. Objective: The aim of the current work was to compare between the effectiveness of KT versus OM training for improving drooling in children with spastic CP. Patients and Methods: This study included 24 children of both gender with spastic CP, aged 4 to 8 years. They were selected according to specific eligibility criteria and were randomly allocated into Kinesio taping (KT) group (n=12) and oromotor (OM) group (n=12). The KT group received Kinesio taping application on orbicularis oris muscle, while the OM group received oral motor exercise program. Both groups received intervention 3 times/week for successive 2 months. Assessment of drooling severity and frequency by using the 5-minute drooling quotient (DQ) and drooling severity and frequency scale (DSFS). Data were collected at the baseline and the end of intervention. Data were statistically analyzed and compared. Results: Comparison of pre-and post-treatment mean values of all measured variables showed significant improvement for children of both KT and OM groups. The post treatment results showed that OM training is more effective than KT in decreasing drooling severity and frequency. Conclusion: Although both OM exercises and KT application are effective in improving drooling in children with spastic CP; OM training is proven to be more effective than KT when used as a standalone treatment.

Serebral palsili (SP) çocuklarda salya akması, günlük yaşantılarını olumsuz yönde etkilemektedir. Amacımız, SP'li çocuklarda salya akması kontrolünü sağlama tekniklerinden oral motor terapinin (OMT) ve kinezyolojik bantlamanın (KB) etkinliğini karşılaştırmaktır. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çalışmamız, özel bir eğitim ve rehabilitasyon merkezinde hizmet alan ve çalışmaya katılmayı kabul eden 2-18 yaş arası 50 SP'li çocuk ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Katılımcılar, OMT ve KB olarak rastgele 2 eşit gruba ayrılmıştır. Uygulamalar haftanın 5 günü aile, 2 günü ise araştırmacılar tarafından yapılmıştır. Uygulamaların düzenli ve doğru yapılması araştırmacılar tarafından takip edilmiştir ve toplam 8 hafta uygulama yapılmıştır. Uygulamaların de-
