Abstract
This paper focuses on the act of swallowing and how it affects the morphology of the human skull. The articulation of the tongue is one of the causes of dentofacial abnormalities. When functioning, the tongue has a major impact on the entire cranium. The balus moves in a rarefied space. Swallowing is a mechanical action that moves the contents of the mouth cavity into the caudal portions of the digestive system. A clinical case of treatment of a patient with a distal bite using a device built according to the formula of utility model No. 13016 (BY) is described.
