This study aims to check the phonetic adaptation of patients with fixed denture constructions using auditory analyzer software. Spectrograms and sonograms of patients before the orthopedic treatment were used as a research material. The further analysis was performed on with the help of auditory analyzer software Steinberg Wavelab V5.01b and Algorithmix renovator 2.1. Acoustic analysis of spectrograms and sonograms carried out using computer technologies can help dentists and orthopedists with planning and carrying out the orthopedic treatment, and to avoid occurrence of possible complications. It considerably improves orthopedic treatment of defects in the anterior part of the upper front teeth.
