  • overprominent lower lip
26
Q

what infections are common in cleft lip or palate

upper respiratory infections, middle ear infections

27
Q

craniofacial anomilies of the nose and throat predispose the child with a cleft palate to

A

airway obstruction and breathing problems

28
Q

do patients with a cleft lip or palate have difficulty making certain sounds

A

yes

29
Q

what contributes to speech problems

A

-anatomic structure, airway and breathing problems and hearing difficulties

30
Q

hearing loss is ______ than in individuals with a cleft palate

A

higher

31
Q

when is surgical union of the cleft lip made

A

at 2 to 3 months of age, 10 weeks of age, weighs 10 lbs, serum hemoglobin of 10 mg/ml

32
Q

what are purposes of early tx of a cleft lip

A

-aids in feeding
encourages dev of premaxilla
partial closure of a cleft

33
Q

when is primary surgery to closure of the palate done

A

by age 18 months or earlier when possible

34
Q

what are the goals for tx of closure of cleft palate

A

achieve normal function, (speech)
relive problems of airway and breathing
-dental esthetics and functional occlusion

35
Q

what may secondary surgery of the cleft palate include

A

-lips, nose, palate and jaw

36
Q

what are the objectives of secondary surgical procedures of a cleft palate

A

improve function for coherent communication, improve appearance

37

38
Q

When is an alveolar graft placed in palatal surgery

A

before eruption of maxillary teeth at the cleft site

39
Q

what does an alveolar graft do

A

creates a normal archetecture, support is provided for teeth

40
Q

what are teh 2 types of prosthesis in clefts

A

obturator- removable prosethesis closure of palatal opening

speech aid prosthesis- removable, completes palatopharyngeal valving

41
Q

dental caries

45
Q

what is the frequency of maintenence of cleft patients

A

3 or 4 months, difficult to keep teeth clean

46
Q

what are some of the objectives of appointment planning

A
  • review dental biofilm control
  • provide encouragement
  • to remove all calc and smooth surfaces
  • supervise a caries prevention program
47
Q

why may patients have apprehension at appointments

A
  • clinic tired

- low self esteerm, difficulties in social interactoins

48
Q

what should we know about speech in patients with clefts

A
