 | | For parents with cleft lip and palate or for a child with cleft lip and palate, the risk of having a subsequent affected child is 4%. | | | Pathophysiology: Development of the upper lip is characterized by fusion of the maxillary prominences with the lateral and medial nasal prominences. | | | A variety of techniques for reorienting the orbicularis oris muscle fibers in unilateral clefts have been described, although the optimal method of muscle repair remains to be determined. |

| | Cleft - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Many clefts run in families, even though there does not seem to be any identifiable syndrome present. | | | Cleft palate also can be corrected by surgery, usually performed between 9 and 18 months. | | | Incomplete cleft gives the surgeon more tissue to work with, creating a more supple and natural looking upper lip. |

| | Accompanying the evolution of the surgical repair is the increasingly important involvement of early presurgical alveolar and nasal molding and postoperative long-term nasal stenting in possibly improving surgical outcome. | | | Consequently, rehabilitation of a child born with a facial cleft must involve a multidisciplinary approach and be staged appropriately with the child's development, balancing the need for intervention against its effect on subsequent normal growth. | | | The primary muscle of the lip is the orbicularis oris. |

| | Cleft Lip - Topic Overview of Augusta, Georgia |
| | Before surgery to correct a cleft lip, some babies may be fitted with a device to support their lip during feeding. | | | The exact timing of treatment and surgery takes into account the severity of the cleft lip, the size and health of the baby, and other concerns the doctor may have for the baby. | | | Other times, doctors may prefer to correct cleft lip when a healthy baby is 10 weeks old, weighs 10 lb(4.54 kg) or more, and has a red blood cell (hemoglobin) level of more than 10 grams per deciliter. |

| | Cleft lip and palate - causes, treatment and surgery |
| | As the child grows older further surgery may be needed to improve the appearance of the lip and nose and the function of the palate. | | | The most sensible approach is simply to do everything possible to ensure a healthy pregnancy, avoiding known dangers such as alcohol and smoking. | | | Care and support of the child and the family should last from birth until the child stops growing at about age 18. |

| | Cleft palate and cleft lip |
| | One in every 700 to 800 babies is affected by a condition known as cleft lip or cleft palate, which means the two halves of the palate or lip didn't join up properly, leaving an open space or 'cleft'. | | | Bottle feeding tends to be easier for the baby than breastfeeding, but be guided by your doctor, surgeon or health care nurse. | | | The cleft can be surgically corrected at around three months of age, with subsequent surgery on the palate at around six months to one year. |

| | A baby may have a cleft lip or a cleft palate or both. | | | Often a parent's first concern is, "How will I feed my baby with a cleft lip and palate?" For example, the cleft can make effective sucking difficult and the milk may come back through the baby's nose. | | | Your pediatrician will provide you with general pediatric care and coordinate all the services that your baby may need. |

| | Don't allow friends or relative to describe it as a 'sore' lip as young children may unnecessarily worry that the baby is experiencing pain. | | | Early in pregnancy at about 6-8 weeks, the usual fusing, or joining up of tissues of the lip and/or palate does not occur, leaving an opening or "cleft". | | | As parents, we recognise that these children have special needs at certain times, as do our other children, but we aim to bring them up with the healthy self-esteem that all children need to cope with the outside world. |

| | Cleft palate is a birth defect in which the two halves of the mouth do not fuse together properly. | | | However, for a severe deficit, especially if there is also a cleft palate, surgery is impractical and euthanasia is the only humane course since sucking is interfered with. | | | It will be apparent when the affected kitten is born, and may occur with a cleft palate. |
