This is a case report about the successful orthodontic treatment of a bilateral cleft lip and palate patient by using a combination of bone grafting and subsequent prosthodontic rehabilitation. An adult patient with a bilateral cleft lip and palate presented with a concave profile, anterior and lateral crossbite, a markedly deep overbite, and residual bilateral alveolar clefts. His jaw movement patterns were unstable and irregular due to his collapsed bite. Orthodontic treatment with bilateral bone grafting improved his concave profile by downward and backward rotation of the mandible within the freeway space, and optimum occlusion and functionally stable and smooth jaw movements were obtained. After a 6-year retention period, no skeletal relapse could be detected, and his occlusal stability was satisfactory.

Treatment of patients with a cleft lip and palate can be challenging. A boy, 15 years 11 months old, with a bilateral cleft lip and palate and a convex profile, transposed teeth and congenitally missing teeth was treated by orthodontic treatment. 3 year posttreatment records showed excellent results with good occlusion,facial balance and harmony, and long-term stability.

Introduction. Cleft lips and palates are the most common congenital orofacial anomaly. This type of clefts is the most severe from the orthodontic-surgical therapy aspect. Case report. A female newborn with a complete cleft of the primary and the secondary palate was admitted to the clinic, where a multiple-role orthodontic device was specially designed and applied to primarily manage the closure of the existing cleft and help to improve the suckling ability of the baby. Besides the fact that it allows breastfeeding, it has a significant orthodontic effect, too. Conclusion. Specificity of this device is the lack of extraoral fixation. What can easily be observed is a progressive reduction of the cleft between the separated segments and the premaxilla retrusion. It, thus, allows the creation of much better conditions for further surgical management of the said defect.

Clinical case of a 28 year old patient with bilateral cleft lip palate, who was treated during a period of 5 years and 4 months, at the University of Valle postgraduate orthodontic’s clinic of lip and palate, is presented. The patient had undershot jaw, severe mandibular macrognatismo, molar malocclusionclass I and class II right and left, accompanied by severe recumbent and mild retrusión of upper incisors and lower and, multiple malposition and impaction tooth 12. A non - surgical orthodontic plan compensation was developed and accompanied by an initial mandibular treatment, orthopedic expansion and corrective orthodontic treatment, using fixed appliances such as standard braces slot 0.22x0.028 inches, extractions of lower first premolars, typing canines as lateral incisors as well as rehabilitation of the upper front teeth. Satisfactory results were obtained in terms of aesthetic and functional occlusion. Key words: Cleft lip, cleft palate, orthodontic treatment of compensation, bilateral cleft lip and palate.

ABSTRACT Aim The purpose of this case report is to present the orthodontic, surgical and restorative treatments in the case of an operated cleft lip and palate and severe maxillary deficiency in a 14-year-old female patient. Background Only orthodontic treatment could be inefficient for cleft lip and palate patients characterized with maxillary hypoplasia. Orthodontic and surgical treatment shows sufficient results, especially with severe skeletal deficiency. Case report A cleft lip and palate patient required complex multidisciplinary treatment to preserve health and restore esthetics. Dental leveling and alignment of the maxillary and mandibular teeth were provided before the surgery. Maxillary advancement and clockwise rotation of the maxillary-mandibular complex was applied by a Le Fort 1 osteotomy with two internal distraction devices. After the active treatment including orthodontic treatment and orthognathic surgery, upper full mouth ceramic restoration was applied. Conclusion This report shows the efficiency of internal distraction devices in cleft lip palate patients and exemplifies the multidisciplinary care required for such difficult cases. Clinical significance Stable improved occlusion and skeletal relations were observed after a follow-up examination period of 12 months. How to cite this article Öz AA, Özer M, Eroglu L, Özdemir OS.
