TERM 1
Clinical Focus: Tongue Tip Sounds
DEFINITION 1
careful attention to range and excursion of tongue: protrude,
elevate, depress, lateralize, rotate; length of frenum; check
for tongue thrust. also careful attention to: articulation
differentiation, malocculision, bite, dental malalignment and
integrity of the tongue.
TERM 2
Clinical Focus: Resonance Problem
DEFINITION 2
careful attention to: velopharyngeal closure, integrity of the
hard and soft palates, quality of sustained vowel and size and
condition of the tonsils.
TERM 3
Clinical Focus: Retroflex Problem
DEFINITION 3
careful attention to tongue: protrude, elevate, depress,
lateralize, rotate, articulator differentiation, and integrity of
the tongue
TERM 4
Clinical Focus: Unintelligible Speech
DEFINITION 4
careful attention to: all volitional tongue and lip movements,
articulator differentiation, and integrity of the tongue and
lips. also careful attention to: verbal diadechokinesis (rate
and synchrony), frenum length, and any indication of
neurological involvement (tremors, asymmetry of movement,
fasciculation; no gag reflex, deviating uvulum)
TERM 5
Clinical Focus: Concerns with the Voice
DEFINITION 5
careful attention to: respiration, sustained vowel/voice
quality, and /s/;/z/ ration (if /s/ is held longer = usually means
vocal pathology)

TERM 6

Clinical Significance: Organic

Etiology

DEFINITION 6 anomalies of the lip, tongue and/or velar movement, problems with palatal and/or dental integrity, motor speech disorders and swallowing disorders. May result in referral to a medical or dental specialist. Has a significant impact on diagnosis and treatment. TERM 7

Clinical Significance: In General

DEFINITION 7 Tongue and lip problems can explain certain misarticulations. Problems with velum, VPI (velopharyngeal incompetence), and/or hard palate can explain resonance. Problems with verbal diadochokinesis may indicate motor speech disorder. Facial asymmetry, tremor, fasciculation, deviation...may indicate neurological involvement. Problems with breathing, breath support, and/or vowel sustenation may imply vocal pathology. Problems with dentition can explain problem with misarticulation. TERM 8

OFE for Small Children

DEFINITION 8 OFE can activate fears: use props (puppets) and take turns. Child may not understand what you want them to do: imitate except where noted and break the directions down. TERM 9

OFE:

Dentures

DEFINITION 9 Understand that the plate covers the palate. They should not be removed, you are not concerned about a cleft palate and you do not have to count this person's teeth. Lack of: edentulous (without teeth) This condition does not necessarily have to interfere with speech.
