Palatal Lift Prosthesis for Speech Improvement.

The provider fabricates a palatal lift prosthesis by taking an impression, or negative imprint, of the patient's oral cavity. The palatal lift prosthesis, a removable device, aids in velopharyngeal closure by elevating an incompetent soft palate that is dysfunctional due to clefting, surgery, trauma, or paralysis.
