Tongue Thrust
The other day, my dentist said that she thinks I have tongue thrust. Has anybody else had this? She recommended speech therapy, but are there any personal exercises I could do that would help me improve?
Thanks :)

aha. i had that.
its where your tongue pushes out your teeth when you swallow, and it causes them to move forward.
you have to learn how to swallow properly so your tongue stops pushing on your teeth when you swallow.
so when you swallow make sure your tongue pushes out on the roof of your mouth instead on your teeth. its hard and completely anyoying but yeah.
so my dentist then told me to put stickers like all over the place like on my binders etc like everywhere and when ever i saw a sticker swallow the proper way. do that for a month and then you like trained your tongue to swallow correctly.
idk that what my dentist said.
i had to do it for ortho.
