This little sweetheart was born with a left cleft lip and underwent repair this January.
Early cleft lip repair helps restore normal function for feeding and supports facial development over time. Procedures like this are carefully timed and tailored to each patient.
Ongoing care remains a key part of treatment—regular follow-ups allow for monitoring of healing, support with feeding, guidance for speech development, and tracking facial growth as the child grows.
A strong start, with continued care every step of the way.

This 18-year-old crashed into a tree at 60 mph while texting and driving, resulting in severe facial injuries.

She sustained multiple facial fractures, including her jaw. Surgery was required to carefully reposition the bones and stabilize them with small plates and screws so they could heal properly.

Don’t text and drive.
While we can fix it here , we’d much prefer if we didn’t have to.

Meet Max and Melani 💙💛

At Kansas Cleft and Craniofacial Center, we’re honored to be part of every journey. Max (6) has cleft palate and Pierre Robin sequence. Melani (7) was born with cleft palate and Pierre Robin sequence and has undergone mandibular distraction.

Today, both are growing, thriving, and full of life—and we’re grateful to watch it every step of the way. There’s nothing more special than seeing these moments unfold and celebrating how far each little kido has come!

Cleft palate surgery is a powerful first step—but it’s only the beginning of a much longer journey. As a child grows, continued care plays a critical role in how they speak, hear, eat, and feel about themselves.

Our team is committed to helping your child every step of the way. Ongoing care often includes speech therapy to build strong communication skills, regular hearing evaluations to monitor for fluid or ear infections, and dental and orthodontic support as the jaw and teeth develop. Some children may also need additional procedures over time to improve function and appearance as they grow.

This isn’t just a single procedure—it’s a journey of care, support, and guidance. Because every milestone matters, and every child deserves the confidence and opportunity to thrive.

Getting to know each child and their story is our favorite part of the work 💙
Cleft lip and palate care isn’t just about procedures—it’s about trust, patience, and celebrating every milestone along the way. We’re grateful to be part of journeys like this one, where courage shows up in the smallest patients every single day.

Tiny ears, big impact✨
The EarWell Infant Ear Correction System is a gentle, non-surgical way to reshape newborn ears in the first weeks of life. Because cartilage is soft and moldable early on, we can guide the ear into a more typical shape—no surgery needed.

🕒 Best started within the first few weeks of life. Ear molding must be initiated before 6 weeks of age.

💤 Painless and well-tolerated

🔄 Weekly adjustments are required with your care team.

Early intervention matters! If you notice an ear difference at birth, don’t wait—timing makes all the difference.

Grateful for the opportunity to serve so many incredible families through the Kansas Cleft and Craniofacial Center. Over the years, we’ve had the privilege of caring for so many amazing little patients and watching them grow. The cleft journey can be a long one, but these little ones never stop smiling through it—and both them and their families continue to inspire our entire team.

This sweet little boy is 6 weeks out from spring assisted cranioplasty. Spring assisted cranioplasty is a relatively new but really amazing and effective procedure. It entails placing a spring along the fused suture to expand and reshape the skull. The coolest part is that it visibly expands the volume for the brain immediately in surgery, addressing any possible elevated intracranial pressures ! And it’s DOESNT require a helmet! The contour irregularities seem now will resolve once the springs are removed in 3 months. But the remarkable change in head shape will persist!
