Team work makes the dream work
Our specialized team, consisting of our own oral and maxillofacial surgeons, plastic surgeons, speech pathologists, pediatric dentists and orthodontists & more, have been treating the complex functional and cosmetic aspects associated with cleft lip and palate for nearly twenty (20) years. Quarterly meetings are held to monitor facial growth and development as individuals’ transition through growth and development.
Cleft lip and cleft palate malformations arise when the developing face fails to fuse early in pregnancy. Cleft lip with or without cleft palate is one of the most common congenital abnormalities. The formation of the fetal face occurs in the first trimester of pregnancy.
As they grow, children born with cleft lip and palate need the services of a team of health care professionals. In addition to surgically closing the opening in the lip and/or palate, they may need medical intervention to improve eating, teeth, speech, ears and hearing, and social/psychological development.
