Cerebral Palsy and Ankyloglossia: Improved Sleep, Speech, Swallowing, and Breathing After Tongue‐Tie Release: A Case Series

Undiagnosed oral restrictions may impair mobility and development in children with CP. Addressing these restrictions may improve speech, swallowing, and other critical functions. Proper assessment of oral restrictions in children with CP or other comorbidities is essential to optimize therapeutic outcomes and enhance quality of life. This case series highlights the importance of considering oral restrictions in children with special healthcare needs and the ongoing need for further research.
