Uvular Speech (Alaryngeal Speech):
Mechanism:
Creates an artificial glottis using the tongue, palate with uvula, or pharyngeal wall to produce sound. Air is directed from the pharynx, and the uvula vibrates against the other structures to create phonation.
Challenges:
It can produce intelligible speech, particularly with puberphonia, normal functioning larynx is available. A normal hidden low pitched voice is there which can be brought out by activation of the phonatory tract by UMAR.
