Here's what you need to know
Understanding Cleft Lip and Palate
Are you or your loved one affected by a cleft lip or palate? Are you looking for a transformative solution to repair this condition and achieve a beautiful smile? Cleft lip or palate surgery is the answer you’ve been searching for to restore function, improve aesthetics, and boost self-confidence.
A cleft lip occurs when the upper lip does not fully form during fetal development, resulting in a gap or split in the lip. A cleft palate, on the other hand, occurs when the roof of the mouth does not close completely, leading to an opening between the mouth and nasal cavity. These conditions can affect a person’s ability to eat, speak, and breathe properly, as well as impact their self-esteem.
Here’s what you need to know about cleft lip or palate surgery, the procedure that can help you embrace a beautiful smile.
Cleft lip or palate surgery is performed under general anesthesia. For a cleft lip repair, the surgeon carefully repositions and sutures the tissues to close the cleft and create a more natural-looking upper lip contour. Cleft palate repair involves reconstructing the roof of the mouth to close the gap and restore proper function. The specific technique and timing of the surgeries may vary depending on the individual’s condition and the recommendations of the healthcare team.
Cleft lip or palate surgery is part of a comprehensive treatment plan that typically involves a multidisciplinary team of healthcare professionals, including plastic surgeons, oral surgeons, speech therapists, and orthodontists. The goal is to address the functional and aesthetic aspects of the cleft, ensuring proper speech development, normal facial growth, and an aesthetically pleasing smile.
Each cleft lip or palate surgery is tailored to the unique needs of the patient. Our experienced team will thoroughly assess the condition, discuss the treatment options, and develop a personalized treatment plan that considers factors such as the severity of the cleft, the age of the patient, and any associated concerns.
