About this trial

The objective of this research is to investigate the impact of oral facial facilitation and oral motor therapy dysphagia in individuals with spastic cerebral palsy. Specifically, the study aims to:

* Evaluate changes in dysphagia and severity following a regimen of oral motor therapy and oral facial facilitation. * Assess improvements in swallowing function, including ease of swallowing and reduction in dysphagia symptoms, after implementing oral motor therapy and oral facial facilitation.
