This clinical handbook addresses the assessment and treatment of oral motor concerns in clients of all ages with a variety of disorders. In recent years there has been increased interest in the area of oral motor assessment and treatment. It seems as if an oral motor explosion has occurred, and the speech-language pathologist is left wondering, Where do I begin? Where can I find appropriate and adequate training in this area? What tools and materials should I buy? What techniques should I use?Oral Motor Assessment and Treatment answers these and many other questions.
