Surgery
Cleft lip
Cleft lip and palate are common congenital malformations, with a global incidence of approximately 1 in 600 individuals.
Cleft palate
Cleft palate causes problems with eating, and makes the speech development more difficult.
Alveolar cleft
Children with alveolar cleft do not have enough bone in the jaw for the teeth.
Without it’s closure and high qualitiy orthodontic treatment they face aesthetic and dental problems.
Orthognathic surgery
Some of the cleft patients will need orthognatic surgery in the late childhood. It is a difficult
operation that requires precise planning and serious pre-operative procedure, but great results can be achieved in the upper and lower jaw.
Multidisciplinarity
Prenatal lactation course
It is hard to hear that your most beloved baby will have medical problem.
It is very important to reassure the parents that there are treatment and solution for them
Feeding specialist consultation
after birth
Feeding a cleft baby after birth is not easy, but it is possible. They can’t make a vacuum, so it’s important to get help from a specialist in the first few days.
ENT
Babies with cleft palate often suffer from otitis media. They need regular ear, nose and throat check-ups.
Speech therapy
Due to the cleft palate, it is difficult to make a sound for the cleft patients. They might have a nasal tone and often find it hard to make themselfs understood.
Orthodontist
Even children without cleft often need orthodontic treatment. In cleft patients, the teeth are mostly tangled, so they need expert orthodontic treatment
