Abstract:: This study aimed to discover whether the surgical treatment of oral cavity tumours only affects on articulation or whether it also leads to a change in voice quality and fundamental frequency. Twelve participants were examined pre- and postoperatively for mean speaking fundamental frequency, standard deviation of the mean fundamental frequency, harmonic-to-noise-ratio and intrinsic pitch. All the parameters showed a substantial postoperative change in some patients.
