This study evaluated the effects of early prosthetic intervention for achieving normal articulation development in cleft palate patients. Early surgery is the preferred method of treatment to permit normal articulation development. Prosthetic management provides an alternative treatment to promote more normal articulation development when early surgery is not planned. It can be concluded that a prosthesis must be placed prior to development of meaningful speech if improved articulation development is to be achieved. Close cooperation among surgeon, speech pathologist, and prosthodontist is necessary to ensure timely surgical deferral and prosthetic treatment.
本研究评估了早期修复干预对腭裂患者实现正常发音发育的影响。早期手术是允许正常发音发育的首选治疗方法。当不计划进行早期手术时，修复治疗提供了一种替代治疗方法，以促进更正常的发音发育。可以得出结论，如果要实现改善的发音发育，必须在有意义的语音发展之前佩戴假体。外科医生、言语病理学家和修复牙医之间的密切合作对于确保及时推迟手术和进行修复治疗是必要的。
