speech disorder
Let an agent explain types and causes of speech disorders, relay general information on assessment and therapy from professional bodies, support communication access and inclusion, and route personal questions to clinicians.
Research draft, second pass
A second pass drafted this model: the structure a model of this thing needs, and what is known about it in the world. The line under this one says how the second half was obtained - researched against sources, or recalled without web access, in which case nothing here was read anywhere and every claim is a lead to verify. Unreviewed either way.

What it is Filled
A condition affecting the production of speech sounds or voice, including articulation and phonological disorders, fluency disorders such as stuttering, motor speech disorders such as dysarthria and apraxia, and voice disorders such as vocal cord dysfunction, nodules, granulomas, sulcus vocalis and paradoxical vocal fold motion; speech disorders arise from developmental, neurological, structural or functional causes and are assessed and treated by speech-language pathologists and physicians.
