This article functions as an epilogue to the clinical forum examining the use of nonspeech oral motor treatments (NSOMTs) to remediate speech sound disorders in children.
Conclusions to eight clinical questions are formed based on the findings that were reported in the clinical forum. Theoretical and clinical challenges are also identified.
NSOMTs have serious theoretical and empirical shortcomings. At present, there is insufficient evidence to support the routine clinical application of these procedures to remediate developmental speech sound disorders.
本文作为临床论坛的结语，探讨了使用非言语口腔运动治疗（NSOMTs）纠正儿童语音障碍的情况。
基于临床论坛中报告的研究结果，形成了对八个临床问题的结论。同时也确定了理论和临床方面的挑战。
非言语口腔运动治疗存在严重的理论和实证缺陷。目前，没有足够的证据支持将这些方法常规应用于临床以纠正发育性语音障碍。
