To investigate the frequency of tongue-thrust swallowing in a breast-fed population and in a bottle-­fed population, 110 Navajo and 149 non-Indian children within the 7- to 13-year age range were individually tested. Frequency of tongue-thrust swallowing was 65% in the breast-fed (Navajo) sample [...] Read more.
To investigate the frequency of tongue-thrust swallowing in a breast-fed population and in a bottle-­fed population, 110 Navajo and 149 non-Indian children within the 7- to 13-year age range were individually tested. Frequency of tongue-thrust swallowing was 65% in the breast-fed (Navajo) sample and 81% in the predominantly bottle-fed (non-Indian) sample. This difference was statistically significant. On the basis of a parent question­naire, two subgroups were formed from the predominantly bottle-fed (non-Indian) sample. They were composed of (a) 59 totally bottle-fed non-Indian children and (b) 31 non­Indian children who had been breast-fed four months or longer. No statistical difference in terms of tongue-thrust swallowing was found between the two subgroups. However, a statistical difference was found when each of the two subgroups was compared separately with the breast­fed Indian sample. Statistically more tongue-thrust swallowing existed in a totally bottle-fed group and in a group which had been breast-fed from four to twelve months than in the Navajo group which had been breast-fed from 18 to 36 months. The relationship between method of feeding in infancy and undue prolongation of tongue­thrust swallowing clearly merits further investigation. The data for this study were gathered in 1972; the results were reanalyzed statistically in 1979. The findings have heretofore been unpublished. Full article
