Abstract

This article provides information concerning cleft palate teams and questions one might consider in identifying the best referral for patients manifesting velopharyngeal impairment. A discussion of the impact of velopharyngeal impairment on speech performance is followed by presentation of a variety of simple evaluative tasks that can assist the clinician in identifying patients who would benefit from referral to a cleft palate team. Finally, information is presented concerning the potential speech sequelae of maxillary advancement surgery.
