Q

Role of Speech Therapy

A

Speech therapy to correct compensatory errors is best.

It’s always best to correct after structure is fixed.

Speech therapy does not correct obligatory errors.

46
Q

Summary

A

Children with clefts or other craniofacial anomalies are at risk for dental and occlusal abnormalities.

Most consonants are produced in the anterior portion of the oral cavity.

Abnormalities of the anterior dental arch and of jaw relationships can interfere with movement of the tongue tip and lips.

It’s important for dental professionals and speech-language pathologists to work closely together to coordinate care.
