Attention to Rhotacism Language Problem by Oral Surgery and Vibrostimulatory Therapy: A Case Report

Ankyloglossia may prevent the tongue from contacting the anterior palate, which promotes an infantile swallow and hamper the progression to an adult-like swallow. This can result in an open bite deformity and in some cases it can be associated to mandibular prognathism and language problems like rho...
