The Dynamic Dento-palatography System: a new approach for evaluating speech

Evaluation of articulation of Turkish phonemes after removable partial denture application

“…The second important component controls the spreading of the sound waves by acoustic speech. Finally, the structure of the transformation of these sound waves into neurological impulses at the hearing organ and the interpretation of this message at cerebral levels forms the speech auditory components (7).…”

“…These can be listed as listening to the direct sound, listening to recorded sound, spectrum analysis and use of a sound spectrogram in order to examine the diffusion of speech waves, evaluating the articulation with cephalographic film video fluoroscopy and palatography to determine the functional relations of oral tissues (1,3,8-10). Although the evaluation of the tongue movement inside the mouth poses technical difficulties, computerized imaging methods, paleographic, radiological and acoustical methods currently provide important assistance in addition to the clinical evaluations (7,(10)(11)(12). The weak and subjective point of direct listening or recorded listening methods is the evaluators' perfection.…”
