Oropharyngeal dysphagia is a type of swallowing disorder characterized by difficulty initiating or transferring a bolus from the mouth into the pharynx and upper esophagus. It involves dysfunction in the oral and pharyngeal phases of swallowing(mouth and throat).The problem typically arises from impaired coordination of muscles and nerves responsible for swallowing, leading to inefficient or unsafe swallowing.
We provide comprehensive oro-pharyngeal dysphagia clinical assessment and evidence-based treatment services, including instrumental evaluations and personalized rehabilitation programs to ensure safe and effective swallowing.
We provide specialized services in the clinical assessment and management of oro-pharyngeal dysphagia, including:
Comprehensive clinical swallowing evaluation
Instrumental assessments such as Modified Barium Swallow (MBS) and Fiberoptic Endoscopic Evaluation of Swallowing (FEES)
