The Intersection of Speech Therapy and Prosthodontics: A Comprehensive Review
Relation in speech therapy and prosthodontics.
Abstract
This literature review delves into the principles and methodologies underlying speech therapy, emphasizing the integration of prosthetic devices for the treatment of speech and language disorders. It explores the design and implementation of oral prostheses, specifically for cleft palate patients, highlighting the importance of avoiding obstructions that hinder tongue movement and ensuring proper velopharyngeal function. The review outlines comprehensive speech evaluation protocols, including oral examinations, articulation tests, nasal emission tests, and overall speech intelligibility assessments. Furthermore, it discusses the impact of prosthodontics on speech, noting that changes in denture design can affect tongue position and oral cavity dimensions, thus influencing speech production. The role of speech therapy in managing congenital and acquired speech disorders through devices like palatal lifts and speech bulbs is also examined. Additionally, the review touches on the intersection of speech therapy and mental health, suggesting that speech characteristics may serve as biomarkers for psychiatric conditions. Overall, this review underscores the necessity of collaborative efforts between prosthodontists and speech therapists to optimize patient outcomes in speech rehabilitation.
