“…The explanation for these observations could be in the age group of our sample, which is mainly around 6 and 7 years, an age when the primary teeth are fully erupted 21 . This is an important age because it is when the eruption of the permanent teeth begins.…”

Background Dental and oral anomalies are among the most common long‐term side effects of childhood cancer therapy. Aim To evaluate chemotherapy as a risk factor for caries lesions and gingivitis in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) treated with the ALL IC‐BFM 2009 chemotherapy protocol. Design A retrospective cohort study was designed. Clinical records of 23 paediatric patients with ALL exposed to chemotherapy in the Regional Hospital in Valdivia, Chile, and 46 unexposed patients assessed every 3 months for 24 months were analyzed. The data on gender, age, index of the number of decayed, missing, or filled teeth, and the presence of gingivitis were recorded (Mann–Whitney U test and logistic regression analysis, p ≤ .05). Results A significantly greater frequency of gingivitis (69.57%; p < .002) and a mean of new caries lesions were observed in children treated with chemotherapy than in the unexposed children (p < .01). The chemotherapy protocol presented a relative risk of 2.15 (95% CI = 1.22 ‐ 2.66; p = .01) for new caries lesions and 2.29 (95% CI = 1.76 ‐ 3.82; p = .002) for gingivitis. Conclusion The ALL IC‐BFM 2009 chemotherapy protocol in patients with ALL is a risk factor for new caries lesions and gingivitis.

“…Typically, the two-word stage begins following the acquisition of roughly forty words [ 33 ]. Entering the third year, children can recursively combine phrases, allowing multiword phrases, and children learn to produce all vowels and around two-thirds of consonants and liquids (liquids are vowel-like consonants such as the [l] in led and the [ɹ] in red) [ 34 ]. Children learn they can communicate through speech: crying when sad or complaining when angry motivates actions from those around them.…”

Impacts of Development, Dentofacial Disharmony, and Its Surgical Correction on Speech: A Narrative Review for Dental Professionals

Speech is a communication method found only in humans that relies on precisely articulated sounds to encode and express thoughts. Anatomical differences in the maxilla, mandible, tooth position, and vocal tract affect tongue placement and broadly influence the patterns of airflow and resonance during speech production. Alterations in these structures can create perceptual distortions in speech known as speech sound disorders (SSDs). As craniofacial development occurs, the vocal tract, jaws, and teeth change in parallel with stages of speech development, from babbling to adult phonation. Alterations from a normal Class 1 dental and skeletal relationship can impact speech. Dentofacial disharmony (DFD) patients have jaw disproportions, with a high prevalence of SSDs, where the severity of malocclusion correlates with the degree of speech distortion. DFD patients often seek orthodontic and orthognathic surgical treatment, but there is limited familiarity among dental providers on the impacts of malocclusion and its correction on speech. We sought to review the interplay between craniofacial and speech development and the impacts of orthodontic and surgical treatment on speech. Shared knowledge can facilitate collaborations between dental specialists and speech pathologists for the proper diagnosis, referral, and treatment of DFD patients with speech pathologies.
