Acoustic Measurements of Speech and Voice in Men with Angle Class II, Division 1, Malocclusion

Conclusion Statistical differences were found in the F0 measurements with higher values in five of the seven vowels analysed in subjects with Angle class II, division 1. The formant frequencies showed differences only in F1 in two vowels with higher values in the study group. The data suggest that data on voice and speech production must be included in the protocol's assessment of patients with malocclusion. [...] Thieme Revinter Publicações Ltda.
