How To Control Excessive Saliva?
My 5 year old has to slurp in his saliva when he speaks. It seems he has excessive saliva, or cannot control it?? He also had dental work when he was two and has caps on the front top teeth. Wondering if that is the problem, or a possible speech problem. He speaks clearly most of the time.
