Hi, I am new to this forum and this subject has probably been covered many times but I wanted as much advice as possible. My daughter who is in Year 2 and is 7 years old still dribbles. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

No advice, but my nephew is 18 and he still dribbles when he gets enthusiastic about something. Not sure if there is a correlation, but he does have large teeth. Looking back at that sentance, there probably isn't.

My son still dribbles at nearly 4.

It seems in his case to be a symptom of glue ear, which if it doesn't resolve may require gromets and adenoids out.

How's her hearing?

Just a quick reply but I saw a thread on here a while back where the poster's dd had this. If I remember rightly and wasn't dreaming (long day) she took her on the embarrasing bodies show. To cut a long story short it turned out to be a Tongue tie, and she had a little op to correct it.
