RESUMO

The speech of individuals with anteroposterior crossbite and repaired cleft lip and palate, before and after orthognathic surgery, was evaluated as to alteration in the articulation point (presence and type) of the different groups of phonemes; percentage and severity of the disorder; and association with structural, motor and sensorial aspects. Twenty young individuals were evaluated before and 13 after surgery, for analysis of: speech (after 5 examiners analyzed alterations in the articulation point) for achievement of the percentage of correct consonants (PCC); sensitivity (esthesiometer Semmes-Weinstein - SORRI) and mobility (scores from 6 to 18) of the lips and tongue; and hearing (Speech Reception Threshold) and hearing loss at low, medium and high frequencies). Before surgery, the median of the PCC (n=20) was 23% (15% in palatal), with severe disorder in most, changing to 69% (n=13) after surgery (31% in palatal), with an improvement in speech (p=0.001, n=13) and reduction in the severity of disorder (p=0.002). The greater the negative overjet before surgery, the lower was the PCC (p=0.019) and the lower was the percentage of improvement after surgery (p=0.002). Before surgery, the evaluated subjects presented severe speech impairment with alterations in the articulation point, especially of labiodental, dental and alveolar phonemes (especially bilabial point and interdental and lisp); after surgery, there was significant improvement in the percentage and severity of speech impairment, evidenced in dental, alveolar and labiodental phonemes, with rare variation in the type of alteration; there was association between the structural aspect and the preoperative PCC, and between the structural aspect and the postoperative increase in the PCC.
