CAVITIES
This cavity acts as a filter and air conditioner to protect the lower airways.
Nasal Cavity
Largest facial bone that houses the teeth. Provides a point of attachment for the tongue.
Mandible
The primary reponsibiluty of this labial muscle is depression.
Inferior Longitudinal Muscle
This occurs when your velopharyngeal valce does not close properly while speaking, letting air into the nasal cavity.
Hypernasality
Prior to surgery, the following strategies and techniques can be used to facilitate feeding for what defect?
-placing the baby in an upright position while feeding to help prevent nasal regurgitation;
-providing jaw and cheek support,
-using the appropriate nipple size;
-positioning the nipple optimally (e.g., away from the side of cleft, if unilateral);
-burping frequently to counter excessive air intake; and
-limiting feeding time (e.g., no more than 30 minutes) to avoid fatigue
Cleft Palate
This cavity is comprised of the nasopharynx, oropharynx, and laryngopharynx.
Pharyngeal Cavity
This anatomical structure forms the roof od the oral cavity and the floor of the nasal cavity.
Hard Palate
What would happen if the velum fails to elevate when we swallow?
Food or liquid would reflux into our nasal cavity.
This type of disorder is categorized by an imbalance in how much oral and nasal sound energy is produced when speaking.
Resonance Disorder
As children get older, articulation for individuals with this defect may be characterized by a restricted phonetic inventory, sound substitutions/omissions, and compensatory articulation errors, and expressive language development can be delayed but often catches up with age.
Cleft Palate
This cavity is the area inside of the cheek.
Buccal Cavity
Continuous with the hard palate. Separates the oral cavity from the nasal cavity.
Velum
Tongue protrusion requires which muscles?
Posterior Genioglossus (draws tongue forward), and Vertical and Transvere Intrinsic Muscles (shapes tongue)
A blockage in one's nasal cavity can cause this.
Hyponasality
This type of resonance disorder has to do with sound getting "trapped" as it exits part of the vocal tract.
Cul-de-sac Resonance
This cavity consisters of the lips anteriorly, the cheeks laterally, two rows of teeth, the hard palate, velum, and tongue.
Oral Cavity
Attachment for upper and lower lip to alveolar process.
Labial Frenulum / Frenum
This muscle category is responsible for changing the position of the tongue (e.g. elevate, depress, forward, or backward).
Extrinsic Muscles
The most common cause of this insufficiency is cleft palate or submucuois cleft palate.
Velopharyngeal Insufficiency
Issues with this valve can cause complications with speech and swallowing.
Velopharyngeal Valve
The pharyngeal cavity is approximately how long?
12 cm
Nasal, lacrimal, inferior nasal concha, maxilla, mandible, palatine, zygomatic, and vomer are all examples of what?
Facial Bones
What us the labor producer for speech?
Tongue
When the seal between your oral and nasal cavities does not close completely, this is called what?
Velopharyngeal Dysfunction
The most common types of surgery for this disorder are furlow palatoplasty, pharyngeal flap, or a posterior pharyngeal wall injection augmentation.
