Rethinking speech sound disorder (SSD) in non‐syndromic cleft lip and palate: The importance of recognizing phonological and language difficulties

International Journal of Language &Communication Disorders, Volume 60, Issue 1, January/February 2025.
Abstract Background Children born with cleft palate ± lip (CP ± L) are at risk of speech sound disorder (SSD). Up to 40% continue to have SSD at age 5–6 years. These difficulties are typically described as articulatory in nature and often include cleft speech characteristics (CSC) hypothesized to result from structural differences.

International Journal of Language &Communication Disorders, Volume 59, Issue 6, Page 2181-2196, November/December 2024.
Abstract Background Speech in individuals with cleft lip and/or palate (CLP) is a complex myriad of presenting symptoms.

Acoustic evaluation of voice signal distortion by videoconferencing platforms and devices used in telepractice for cleft palate

Congenital Anomalies, Volume 64, Issue 6, Page 242-253, November 2024.
Abstract The usefulness and effectiveness of telepractice have been reported in recent years. Treatment of cleft palate patients with compensatory articulation is based on perceptual identification.
