RESUMEN
Even after coarse movements have largely become normal, a distrubed motoricity and sensitivity remains in the orofacial region of some children with cerebral lesions, with disordered function of the transport of saliva and masticated food. So far, we have treated 9 children with moderately severe to slight degrees of cerebral disturbances of movement. The first month of treatment with a modified activator showed encouraging results. The apparatus is intended to transform and coordinate the pathological muscular action in the region of the mouth into the most physiological movement possible.
