This study investigated the acoustic measurements of fundamental frequency and formant frequencies in the pronunciation of Brazilian Portuguese vowels by individuals with Angle Class II, Division 1 malocclusion compared to those with Angle Class I malocclusion. The results showed significant differences in fundamental frequency and formant frequencies, indicating the importance of voice and speech production data in the assessment of malocclusion patients.
Introduction The acoustic analysis of speech (measurements of the fundamental frequency and formant frequencies) of different vowels produced by speakers with the Angle class II, division 1, malocclusion can provide information about the relationship between articulatory and phonatory mechanisms in this type of maxillomandibular disproportion.Objectives To investigate acoustic measurements related to the fundamental frequency (F0) and formant frequencies (F1 and F2) of the oral vowels of Brazilian Portuguese (BP) produced by male speakers with Angle class II, division 1, malocclusion (study group) and compare with men with Angle class I malocclusion (control group).Methods In total, 60 men (20 with class II, 40 with class I) aged between 18 and 40 years were included in the study. Measurements of F0, F1 and F2 of the seven oral vowels of BP were estimated from the audio samples containing repetitions of carrier sentences. The statistical analysis was performed using the Student t -test and the effect size was calculated.Results Significant differences ( p -values) were detected for F0 values in five vowels ([e], , [?], [o] and [u]), and for F1 in vowels [a] and [?], with high levels for class II, division 1.Conclusion Statistical differences were found in the F0 measurements with higher values in five of the seven vowels analysed in subjects with Angle class II, division 1. The formant frequencies showed differences only in F1 in two vowels with higher values in the study group. The data suggest that data on voice and speech production must be included in the protocol's assessment of patients with malocclusion.
