Patient's question:
Shorter in height compared to peers, snoring while sleeping, drooling. Doctor, is there a health issue with the child?Doctor's answer:
It is due to the child's oral cavity not being fully developed, and the weak chewing ability of the tongue being unable to swallow the saliva secreted by the mouth in time, which leads to drooling. As the child grows, the oral cavity will naturally develop, and drooling will stop. Every child develops differently, and generally, children can develop fully by the age of 3. The latest is by the age of 6.
