The following orthodontic-logopedic screening procedure is intended to objectify the diagnosis of such dysfunctions and the progress of therapy. A diagnostic questionnaire was prepared based on existing diagnostic questionnaires for myofunctional dysfunction. It contains 32 questions, with a clinical weighting of 0 to 50 points in total. This results in a point score. The lower the score is, the lower the need for therapy is. The study included 108 patients between the ages of 6 and 50 years. After screening, the patient population was divided into Group 0 (score &lt; 15; no speech therapy need; n = 36) and Group 1 (score \u2265 15; a speech therapy need; n = 72). Group 1 was additionally randomized into Subgroups A (with speech therapy; n = 36) and B (without speech therapy; n = 36). After a treatment interval of 6 months, all patients in Group 1 were examined again with the help of the screening procedure. Statistical analysis (SPSS) and significance testing (Mann\u2013Whitney U test) were performed. At baseline, there was no significant difference between patients in Subgroups A and B (p = 0.157). Subgroup A had a median score of 25, and Subgroup B had a median score of 30. However, after the treatment interval, a significant improvement (p = 0.001) for Subgroup A with a median score of 11 (mean score difference = 14.67) over Subgroup B with a median score 23 (mean score difference of 7.08) was observed. The developed screening procedure was shown to be equally applicable to all patients and treatment providers. With the help of the scores in point form, the need for speech therapy and the progress of such therapy can be objectified.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/jpm13081248","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,8,10]],"date-time":"2023-08-10T10:11:22Z","timestamp":1691662282000},"page":"1248","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["A Newly Developed Orthodontic-Logopedic Screening Procedure for Myofunctional Dysfunctions\u2014A Pilot Study"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"Christoph-Ludwig","family":"Hennig","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthodontics, Center of Dental Medicine, Jena University Hospital, An der Alten Post 4, 07743 Jena, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Antonia","family":"Neumann","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthodontics, Center of Dental Medicine, Jena University Hospital, An der Alten Post 4, 07743 Jena, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ann","family":"Nitzsche","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthodontics, Center of Dental Medicine, Jena University Hospital, An der Alten Post 4, 07743 Jena, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Albert","family":"Stemmler","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthodontics, Center of Dental Medicine, Jena University Hospital, An der Alten Post 4, 07743 Jena, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Knuth","family":"Tr\u00e4nckner","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Praxis of Orthodontics Dr. Knuth Tr\u00e4nckner, Schenckendorfstra\u00dfe 1, 07318 Saalfeld, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Nicola","family":"K\u00fchn","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Praxis of Orthodontics Nicola K\u00fchn, Alexander-Puschkin-Platz 3, 99510 Apolda, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Thomas","family":"Lehmann","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Medical Statistics, Computer Science and Data Sciences, University of Jena, Bachstra\u00dfe 18, 07743 Jena, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Collin","family":"Jacobs","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthodontics, Center of Dental Medicine, Jena University Hospital, An der Alten Post 4, 07743 Jena, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,8,10]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"Kittel, A.M.
