Abstract

Cleft lip and/or palate (CL/P) are among the most prevalent of all birth defects in human, affecting approximately 1:700 live births(1). The etiology of CL/P is thought to be multifactorial, involving an interaction between genetic and environmental factors (2,3). Individuals with these anomalies have anatomical de formities that commonly involve the lip, alveolar ridge and palate.Consequently, both aesthetics and function are impairedin the vast majority of cases.
