dc.description.abstractFacial cleft deformity comprises cleft lip and palate deformities, as well as clefts of facial structures not associated with a cleft lip or palate. Cleft surgery requires a comprehensive knowledge of function (speech, occlusion, nasal airflow, middle ear function and facial muscles) and aesthetics, including racial specific features. The surgery comprises almost all types of cranio-maxillofacial and oral surgical interventions and involves both soft tissue (always 3-dimensional), and hard tissue (2- and 3-dimensional) corrective surgery. Appropriate treatment should be done at the best point in time i.e. neonatal period, toddler stage and childhood or during adolescence.
