tongue thrust!
I just finished doing the last of my tongue exercises. I am on my second set of braces because I have a tongue thrust. Gosh, I am not normal at all. My tongue used to rest behind my teeth and it is supposed to rest at the top of your mouth where there is a pocket. I was not eating write, drinking right, and resting right all along. I am getting all my help from my very own speech therapist. With all these tongue exercises I am doing I hope that my teeth never space out again. GRRR! If you're curious of what the exercises are called they are called the tongue pop, suck it up, windshield wipers, tongue tug-o-war- tongue wrestle, and lip press. It is certainly a job to do every night.
