📝Abstract

AIM: The aim of the present study is to evaluate the correlation between habits and dyslalias in school going children between age of 8-13 years.

MATERIALS AND METHODS: A group of 500 children, between age group of 8-13 years were included in this study of which 229 were boys and 271 were girls from various schools in south Chennai. Presence of habits were noted, dental and soft tissue changes were noted. Speech sounds were evaluated using charts presenting with pictures (combining consonants and vowels in english language). Sounds evaluated are sibilants, linguoalveolar stops, labiodental fricatives, linguodental fricatives.

RESULTS: Out of the 500 participants evaluated 159 children met the inclusion criteria. Out of which 34 children had habits associated with speech difficulty (phonemes /s/ /z/ /th/ /sh/).

CONCLUSION: Not all habits caused dyslalias, early identification of dyslalias and its association with any underlying habits is important to aid in correction of habit and speech improvement.

KEYWORDS: Habits, Malocclusion, Dyslalias
