Electropalatographic and cephalometric assessment of tongue function in open bite and non-open bite subjects

Electropalatographic and cephalometric assessment of tongue function in open bite and non-open bite subjects.

Anterior open bite (AOB) and tongue thrust swallowing are frequently associated, but the relationship between the two remains unclear. Electropalatography (EPG), which is used in speech pathology to measure dynamic tongue function for diagnostic, therapeutic, and research purposes, is a suitable technique for the investigation of this relationship. The present clinical study examined the dentof...
