Excerpt from Cleft Palate: Read Before the Connecticut Valley Dental Association, June, 1894 Dr. Stearn (for he was a graduate of medicine) had made for him self would benefit his daughter more than the obturator which I had made. The father then arranged with Dr. Stearn to make for his daughter an artificial velum in conjunction with my prosthesis, as before described. This was my introduction to artificial vela, and was in the winter of 1859 and 1860. Dr. Stearn' s velum was constructed by his taking small impressions of the various parts of the cleft, in white wax, upon the end of a stick, and then combining those forms and making a copy by carving in wood. He was thus able to produce, and did produce, a mold made of wood, in which he subsequently vulcanized his artificial velum.
