First of all, please never say this term, "deaf and dumb". It is quite insulting, and considered today to be very inappropriate as well as incorrect. In eaarly times, deaf persons were thought to be dumb if they could not speak. Today, we realize that they are not dumb; they might be quite smart. The deaf often do not speak because they do not hear the sounds made by speaking.
Having said that, the deaf communicate mostly in 2 ways; signed language (with the hands, gestures, and expressions), and by teletype (a machine similar to a keyboard here).
