55
Q

For lip surgery to recreate normal anatomy, what three things must be accomplished?

What is velopharyngeal insufficiency?

A

When there is inadequate closure of nasopharyngeal airway port during speech

65
Q

VPI treatment includes what?

A
  1. Speech therapy
  2. Surgical treatment (pharyngeal flaps)
  3. Prosthetic appliances
66
Q

What are the goals for alveolar cleft grafting?

67
Q

What age should the alveolar cleft grafting take place?

A
  1. Between ages 9-11, prior to the eruption of the permanent canine and after the crossbite is fixed and the incisors rotated
  2. The canine root is 2/3 formed
  3. Tooth not yet erupted
68
