Description

Cleft palate and cleft lip with palate occur in every 1,700 and 1,600 births (ASHA, n.d.). Speech-language pathology intervention is often needed by individuals who have had a cleft palate; about 50% of individuals who have had a repaired cleft palate are referred to speech pathology services (Sand et al., 2022). According to Alighieri et al. (2021), there is a lack of clear procedures when administering treatment to individuals with repaired cleft palates. The purpose of this project is to identify best practice for speech therapy interventions for individuals with repaired cleft palates. This project reviews the traditional articulation approach, the linguistic approach, and the use of biofeedback. The research suggests that the traditional articulation and linguistic approaches with biofeedback is considered best practice as they are supported by current level III and IV research (Bessell et al., 2013; Alighieri et al., 2021; Kummer, 2020).
