Cleft Lip & Cleft Palate Explained

Let's talk about cleft lip & cleft palate, including the formation of clefts & treatment options! A cleft lip or cleft palate is a developmental condition where the growth plates that form the roof of mouth and lips don’t come together and close properly. A cleft lip or palate occurs during gestation when the baby’s body is rapidly developing. Depending on the circumstances, a cleft can be unilateral (on one side) or bilateral (on both sides.)

Developmental clefts can impact everything from a child’s ability to nurse or eat, to speech development and their self-confidence. Fortunately, those of us who live in developed countries usually have access to amazingly skilled oral and plastic surgeons who can help repair this birth defect.
