Q

What surgical procedures are there to reduce clefts?

A
  1. Lip repair (3months): correct muscle layer, aesthtics, functionals appliance eg milliard, delaire
  2. Palate repair (6/9-12 months): close the palate to achieve velopharyngeal competance where ONF closed for speech
  3. Alveolar bone graft (8-9 years)
  4. Pharyngoplasty
  5. orthognathic surgery
  6. Lip adhesions
  7. Lip revision
  8. Nasal surgery

17
Q

What are the oral health status of cleft lip+/- palate patients?

A

OH is poor
poor self-cleansing
high caries prevalence

18
Q

what dental complications can patients with cleft lip and palate get?

A
  1. increase in natal/neonatal teetj
  2. absent teeth
  3. supernumeraries
  4. anomalies in tooth morphology
  5. rotated teeth adjacent to the cleft
  6. Mobile premaxilla/ increased bilateral overbite
  7. cross bites
19

20
Q

What is the incidence for unilaterial cleft lip and palate?

A

25%

21
Q

WHat is the incidence for billteral cleft lip and palate?

A

10%

22
Q

WHat is CLP?

A

craniofacial malformation

23
Q

WHat is the aetiology behind cleft lip and palate?

A

Genetic: complex, syndromic, non syndromic, >400 single gene causes
environmental: smoking, diet, seasonal, illness, Low SES, drugs, phenytoin, thalidomide, rubella, increased maternal and paternal age

24
Q

What happens at birth for children with CLP?

A 
contact within 24 hours
specilaist nursing
breast feeding rarely possible 
use special soft bottles
sympathetic support
25
Q

What type of factors are seen in people with cleft lip and palate speech?

A

nasal emission
nasal turbulence
hypernasality
nasal grimace

cleft type charactersitics: anterior errors, non errors, and passive errors

26
Q

What is the care pathway for cleft lip and palate?

A 
cuounselling at birth after scan
3/12 lip repair
6-9/12 palate repair
speech and language therapy
5 yr audit
7-11 years alveolar bone graft
10 audit checks
orthodontics
15 audit checks
orthognathic surgery
2- audit checks
27
Q

how can you diagnose clp prenatally?

A

from ulftrasound

28
Q

What is the pathophysiology behind cleft lip?

A 
develops at 3-7 weeks due to failure of 4 processes to unite
maxilliary
lateral nasal pricess
medical nasal process
frontonasal process
29
Q

WHat is the pathophisiology behind cleft palate?

A

forms at 5-12 weeks
Problem with maxillary PROMINENCE
Primary: Maxilliary process with Medial Nasal process forms the philtrum
Sedondary: shelves form from front to back

30
Q

What is the orthodontic treatment for cleft lip and palate?

A

pre surgical orthopeadics
pre bone graft orthodontics
orthodontics
orthodontics with osteotomies

31
Q

What is pre surgical orthopaedics?

A

to help with growht and facilitate feeding and reduce the gap aiding surgery but not sure how much benefit

Happens at birth to 3/6months

32
Q

what is the caries rate in cleft lip and palate children compared to Bristol and west midlands?

A

CLP bristol 1.6 vs normal 1.1

CLP WM 2.3 vs 0.9

33
Q

WHat is the purpose of alveolar bone grafting? and what are the benefits?

A

bone graft into the alveolar cleft allows non prosthetic alignement
allows permanent canine to erupt
intact maxilla
closes any residual ONF
stabalises the premaxilla in BCLP and improves alar base support

34
Q

What is the purposeof the pre bone graft ortho?

A

expand the upper arch laterally
corerct anterior x bite
retain corrections
splint incisors in BCLP

35
Q

What is the purpose of osteotomy in orthodontics?

A

those will skeletal class 3

prior to this need ortho to decompensate teeth and then treat when growth is comeplete

36
Q

What type of speech errors do people with cleft lip and palate have?

A

Anterior and posterior

37
Q

What are rhe posterior errors?

A

Non oral and passive

38
Q

What are the anterior errors?

A

Oral

39
Q

What is the DMFT for CLP in Bristol?

A
