Correction of anterior open bite deformity: a study of tongue function, speech changes, and stability. 1976

T A Turvey, and V Journot, and B N Epker

Nine individuals with anterior open bite underwent tongue function and speech evaluation prior to treatment, postoperatively, and at three-month intervals for at least one year. Aberrant tongue function and speech improved in the absence of tongue or speech therapy during the postoperative period. Periodic clinical and cephalometric evaluation demonstrated generally good stability of treatment results for the period of study.
