“…Also Kluemper et al [20] stated that facial morphology and respiratory mode are unrelated, and that cephalometric analyses should not be used in making clinical decision of nasal impairment. Nasopharyngeal depth has been reported to be shorter in cleft-affected subjects than in non-cleft individuals [21][22][23], although also deviant results have been presented [24]. It seems that since NASA and NASAR did not correlate with LARE they do not explain the /r/ distortion in cleft-affected subjects.…”

To study the associations between the articulation of the Finnish /r/ sound and dentofacial and pharyngeal lateral cephalometric morphology and speech physiology, 18 (12 females, 6 males) young adult cleft patients’ /r/ sound was analysed auditorily by 3 speech experts. Laryngeal resistance (LARE), the smallest nasal cross-sectional area (NASA), nasal resistance (NASAR) and velopharyngeal orifice area (VEPA) were measured with pressure flow technique, and 31 points were identified from the lateral cephalograms to landmark the skeletal structure, pharyngeal airway diameters, and position of the hyoid bone. The present results showed no significant differences in lateral cephalometric skeletal, nasopharyngeal, oropharyngeal or hypopharyngeal morphology between subjects with and without /r/-sound distortion. There were no significant correlations either between /r/ distortions and NASA, NASAR or VEPA. An anteriorly positioned hyoid bone was significantly associated with decreased LARE and /r/ distortion. LARE was significantly lower in subjects with /r/ distortion.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the prevalence of complete ponticulus posticus in Indian orthodontic patients. Methods: The presence and types of ponticuli posticus were investigated on 858 lateral cephalograms. Results: Complete ponticulus posticus was found in 4.3% of the subjects studied with a male (5.33%) predominance over female in the population (3.76%). Conclusions: Ponticulus posticus is not a rare anomaly and the patient must be told of the implications and importance of detecting ponticulus posticus on a lateral cephalogram. This information can prove beneficial for the diagnosis of head and neck symptoms later.

“…Collectively, craniofacial abnormalities are among the most common of all the birth defects. The most frequent of these are the CLP [7,13,19]. When investigating the craniofacial dysmorphology, it is tempting to make an association between two or more defects and link them to a common embryonic event.…”
