[DYSPHAGIA] "Salitron"

[StachoLA@moffitt.usf.edu (Stachowiak, Linda)]

Is anyone familiar with a device called a "Salitron"?  It is a saliva
stimulator manufactured by a company called Biosonics.  I am not personally
familiar with it; however, a patient of ours swears by it....you place
electrodes on the roof of your mouth to stimulate saliva?  Anyway, she has
had it for over 10 years and most recently has broken off a piece of it and
would like to replace it....I thought I could help her by asking some
members of the listserv ...

thanks in advance for any useful information you may have!
