AbstractCleft lip and palate is one of the most common congenital craniofacial malformations. It is associated with various problems such as difficulty in sucking, nasal regurgitation, hearing and speech problems, etc. Feeding is of primary and immediate concern for the growth of infants. In this case report, a 3-month-old female child diagnosed with Veau's class II cleft reported with the difficulty in sucking of milk and nasal regurgitation while feeding. To overcome this problem, a feeding plate was fabricated with simple impression method, which helped the infant feed and restore the proper weight required for cleft palate reconstructive surgery.

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.

Cleft lip and palate is the most common congenital anomaly. Its association with hematologic disorders is rarely reported. Cyclic neutropenia is a rare blood disorder that may occur spontaneously or has a genetic predisposition. Periodicity/recurrence of cyclic neutropenia has a cyclical pattern reoccurring in multiples of 7 days, usually at 21- or 28-day intervals between attacks, with the patient being fairly asymptomatic. There is no case in the literature that has reported the presence of cyclic neutropenia in cleft patients. We report a case of cleft patient associated with Cyclic\ neutropenia\. The clinical features, diagnosis, and course of management are described.

Now a days many children are affected with cleft lip and palate due to multifactorial etiology. Among all the problems of cleft lip and palate, the most important is feeding and nutrition to the child. If a child will not be able to take mother milk after birth then definitely it will hamper the immunity and development of the baby and also it will greatly depress the psychology of mother and other family members. The aim of this article is to present a case of cleft lip and palate baby of 5 days old whose mother chief complaint was that I could not feed my child, and how he was rehabilitated with a feeding plate and made easy for the mother to feed her milk.

Cleft lip and palate is the most common congenital malformation in oro-facial region. In adult cases where defect is large and paucity of tissue is there, prosthetic management of the defect with palatal obutrator and velopharyngeal appliance is the treatment of choice. It requires scrupulous clinical skills and detailed knowledge of anatomy to prevent airway obstruction and discomfort during function. Acoustic pharyngometry (AP) is an advanced tool to evaluate the airway in 3D during function without radiation exposure. In this case report palatal obturator with speech aid prosthesis was fabricated to rehabilitate an adult cleft palate patient. AP test was done to ensure adequate airway space with prosthesis.
