17. ETIOLOGY
Hereditary:
• Single Gene Transmission, Polygenic inheritance
– Trisomies 21, 13, 18
• Bixler
• Monogenic / syndromic cleft
Environmental :
• Nutritional deficiences – vit A
Streau &Peer – Emotional stress
• Defective vascular supply
• Size of tongue
• Drugs &toxins
• Infections
• Lack of development forcewww.indiandentalacademy.com
20. Kernahan & Stark’s Classification of Cleft Lip
& Cleft Palate
• Unilateral incomplete cleft of the primary palate.
• Complete cleft of the primary palate ending at the
incisive foramen.
• Bilateral complete cleft of the primary palate.
• Incomplete isolated cleft of the secondary palate.
• Complete cleft of the secondary palate – soft &
Hard palate.
• Unilateral complete cleft of the primary &
secondary palate
• Bilateral Complete cleft of the primary &
secondary palate.
• Incomplete cleft of the primary palate and
incomplete cleft of the secondary palate

28. Assessment of function
Movement of mandible Rest
Less vertical growth of maxilla
Forward shift with overclosure of mandible
For restorative procedures – centric should
be properly recorded
at occlusion
www.indiandentalacademy.com
29. Principles of treatment
The Neonatal Period :
• Difficulty in swallowing laryngospasm
• Paedtrician
– directs care
– establishes feeding
a soft, large bottle with large
hole is required
a palatal prosthesis may be
required (obturator)
Advantages of obturator:
Reduces feeding diificulty
Cross arch stabilization
Orthopaedic moulding

30. Presurgical Orthodontics
(Baby Plates)
– Molds palate into
more anatomically
correct position
– decreases tension
– may improve facial
growth
– Grayson,
presurgical nasal
alveolar molding
(PSNAM)

31. Primary lip closure
• Lip surgery (cheiloplasty)
– “the rule of tens” - 10 wks, 10 lbs, Hgb 10
Primary palatal closure .
www.indiandentalacademy.com
32. PRIMARY DENTITION
Bilateral cleft – premaxilla is prominent
Treatment – prevention protrusion of incisors
Decidous dentition - normal
Lateral incisors malpositioned
Dental care
Surgical closure - Palatal fistula
Treatment – simple palatal prosthesis
Dental Care
www.indiandentalacademy.com
33. Mixed dentition
Stable position of maxilla
Normal tongue position
Lateral commonly missing
Presence of supernumerary teeth
www.indiandentalacademy.com
34. Adolescence & Adults
•Orthodontic treatment performed
position of maxilla
adequate vertical development
alignment of teeth - occlusion
•Later phase - Prosthodontic measurement
•Mandible permanent stabilised
•Bony grafts
•Raustad (1973)
•Treatment - Full crowns www.indiandentalacademy.com
