Abstract

Management of facial palsy is targeted toward correction of individual patient concerns. Both esthetic perioral changes to the face and functional perioral deficits are commonly concerning to patients with facial paly. Herein, we review perioral impairments resulting from both flaccid and postparalytic facial palsy. Additionally, we discuss targeted therapy and a multitude of technical interventions aimed at restoring perioral functionality to optimize oral competence, speech articulation, and quality of life for facial palsy patients.
