TOngue/Palate Interactions Study

The evaluation of speech production is based on the characteristics of the pressure signal (time and frequency) and the acoustic signal after synchronization during time using duplicate with up to 8 sensors.

To reach the first objective, the investigators will focus on the patients who wear new complete denture during the first session of recording. They will first analyze the characteristics of the acoustic and pressure signals of the production of consonants. They shall select from 8 sensors, 3 sensors for the inferential analysis: a previous sensor in the alveolar zone, a median sensor in the palatal zone and a posterior sensor in the palatal area (on the border of the beginning of the soft palate). These 3 sensors will be selected on the basis of the amplitude of the variations of pressure during the task. This sensor's triplet will be specific to every patient. The investigators shall thus have after 3 sensors called: previous, median, posterior. They shall do, for every sensor's measurements and for the acoustic measures, an inferential statistical analysis based on one model shelf spaces generalized in mixed effects, in which the variable to be explained will be one of moderate variables, the fixed effects will be the session (just after wearing the prosthesis for the first time, 3 weeks later, 3 months later), the consonant, the index of the sensor (1 - 3, from the front to the back) and the index of the repetition (from 1 to 15), and where the random effect will be the patient.
