Denise,
Have you seen Paula Meier's article in the May JHL?  She discussed her study
of nipple shields to help improve sucking at breast for premies.  She did not
directly discuss high arch palates but the shield would help make up any
space deportation so the latch would improve.  It would be worth a look.
Good luck,
