“…What are the factors influencing their abnormal articulation? The predominant pal atalized articulation was considered to be due to a shallow and narrow shape of the anterior palate [9]. Glottal stops, a type of so-called gross substitution, were recognized in our children with good VP function though in a small proportion.…”

“…distorted consonants due to poor intraoral pres sure and so-called compensatory articulation all reflect present or past VP dysfunction. However, misarticulations such as palatalized articulation [9], nasopharyn geal articulation, in which when producing oral sounds the airflow or sound is directed to the nasal cavity with the tongue in contact with the palate [10], or lateral articulation [11,12] arc not directly related to VP dys function.…”

Using our monitoring system, we report the articulation results in 208 children with competent velopharyngeal function after surgery of cleft palate. The number of children who showed normal articulation at each test during the monitoring period was 138. The other 79 children included 37 who acquired normal articulation after training and whose misarticulation disappeared without training. Factors related to their misarticulation are discussed.

“…The abnormal articulations seen most frequently in CPS were originally reported as glottal stops and pharyngeal fricatives [1]. In comparison, palatalized articulations and lateralized articulations have been described as abnormal articulations with increasing frequency in these years.…”

“…Especially palatalized articulations may have a physical cause. Abnormal articulation with palatalized articulation results from rear displacement of the articulation of dental and alveolar sounds and also from small palate volume, particularly constriction of the anterior palate [1]. Fistulae of the anterior palate and abnormal occlusion are also involved in production of the middorsum palatal stop, which has the same articulator pattern as a palatalized articulation [2].…”

To examine how people react to palatalized articulation, we used one cleft palate speech (CPS) sample of palatalized articulation that was purchased in Japan and one recorded sample of speech from a non-cleft palate individual. Study design The two speech samples were rated by 137 native listeners. Each participant rated the set of speech samples for 10 features using a 10-point scale. Alpha factor analysis was performed. Results Two factors were extracted from the entire set of features with alpha factor analysis. Conclusions Although native listeners could not distinguish between CPS and non-CPS using the psychometrical measurements applied in this study, this method of analyzing speech represents a useful technique for planning treatments in cleft disorder patients.Keywords Cleft palate speech · Palatalized articulation · Perception · Semantic differential method For oral and maxillofacial surgeons, understanding speech which is an outcome of palatal plasty is important. Especially palatalized articulations may have a physical cause. Abnormal articulation with palatalized articulation results from rear displacement of the articulation of dental and alveolar sounds and also from small palate volume, particularly constriction of the anterior palate [1]. Fistulae of the anterior palate and abnormal occlusion are also involved in production of the middorsum palatal stop, which has the same articulator pattern as a palatalized articulation [2]. With the purpose of understanding about palatalized articulation which is one of outcomes of palate plasty, we studied how people react to palatalized articulation. Materials and Methods ObjectsWe used a standardized Japanese speech sample with palatalized articulations purchased in Japan (edited by the committee on Cleft Palate Speech of Japan Society of Logopedics and Phoniatrics) that was recorded by a 5-yearold boy with cleft palate and a sample of recorded speech by a non-cleft palate child matched in age and gender and with context edited to match that of the standardized cleft palate speech (CPS) sample. Information about the timing of the operation, duration of speech therapy and home city of the subject in the standardized CPS sample was not available. The non-CPS sample was recorded on a Sony TCM-5000EV tape recorder through a Sony ECM-330 microphone in a soundproof room. The analogue recording was converted to a WAV file on a personal computer (CX/45E Dynabook; Toshiba, Tokyo, Japan) and edited using Sound Engine Free (Cycle of 5th, Sapporo, Japan).

“…The size and shape of the oral cavity, the relations of the tongue and palate and the position of the tongue and hyoid bone have been suggested to affect sound production [1][2][3][4][5][6]. Okazaki et al [7] found that narrowing and shortening of the anterior palate and its shallowness are associated with palatalized articulation, where sounds normally produced by the teeth or tooth ridge and tongue tip are produced instead by contact of the palate and the central portion of the tongue.…”

The purpose of this study was to examine the associations between lateral cephalometric variables and the misarticulation of /r/, /s/ and /l/ sound in cleft lip/palate children. The subjects were 134 Finnish-speaking 6-year-old boys with isolated cleft palate (CP, n = 33), unilateral (n = 44), bilateral (BCLP, n = 19) cleft lip and cleft lip/alveolus (n = 38); /r/, /s/ and /l/ distortions were obtained from original hospital records which were based on perceptual speech follow-ups performed by experienced speech pathologists. Cephalometric measurement points were determined from standardized lateral roentgen cephalograms and traced twice by a computer-connected digitizer. The data were entered into a microcomputer and analysed by NCSS 6.0 for Windows using appropriate tests. The results revealed new significant associations between cephalometric measurements and misarticulations, especially that of the /r/ sound in CP and BCLP groups. Children with /r/ distortion had upward rotation of the mandible, maxillary protrusion and a higher position of the hyoid bone in the CP group. In the BLCP group, on the contrary, the mandible had downward rotation, mandibular retrusion and narrower nasopharyngeal port. The /s/ and /l/ sounds were less clearly associated with craniofacial morphology. The anteroposterior relationship of the maxilla and the mandible did not have any association with dentoalveolar misarticulations, instead, the systematic vertical, particularly posterior relationship of the jaws seems to be associated with /r/ sound production in CP and BCLP boys.
