# Combined Conventional–Digital Workflow to Fabricate a Palatogram for Speech Rehabilitation in a Single Arch Completely Edentulous Class II Patient With Dysarthria: A Clinical Report

## TL;DR

A new method combining traditional and digital techniques was used to create a palatogram to improve speech in a patient with a skeletal Class II condition and no teeth.

## Contribution

A combined conventional–digital workflow for palatogram fabrication tailored to Class II edentulous patients with dysarthria.

## Key findings

- The workflow successfully captured tongue–palate contact regions during speech.
- Speech improvement was confirmed through assessment by a speech therapist using analysis software.

## Abstract

This clinical report describes the creation of a palatogram for speech improvement in a single-arch, completely edentulous, skeletal Class II patient with dysarthria. The treatment focused on occlusal considerations specific to Class II denture wearers and capturing the tongue–palate contact regions during speech. The outcome was assessed by consulting a speech therapist using speech analysis software.
