Cleft Lip and Palate
Cleft lip and/or palate are congenital deformities that occur when the upper lip and jaw do not grow together during gestation. Correction of a cleft lip and/or palate usually consists of multi-stage surgical procedures beginning soon after birth involving a team of specialists including an Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon. The goal of corrective surgery for this type of deformity is to help restore the jaw and facial structures so the patient has normal function and appearance.
