Abstract

Cleft of lip and palate are the most common serial congenital anomalies to affect the orofacial region. Its occurrence can be isolated or together in various combination and/or along with other congenital deformities.


In addition to aesthetic disfigurement, a child with cleft lip and/or palate suffers functional morbidity such as restricted maxillofacial growth, speech anomalies, swallowing and feeding difficulties, hearing loss and/or recurrent ear infections. Although not generally life-threatening, living with a cleft evoke a significant health burden.


The management of patients with cleft lip and cleft palate is very complex and requires a multidisciplinary team with several treatment interventions
