Biomed Res Int. 2015;2015:701850.http://dx.doi.org/10.1155/2015/701850http://hdl.handle.net/11447/5105Cleft lip and palate is the 4th most common congenital malformation and the 1st most common craniofacial anomaly. The incidence of cleft lip and palate varies from 1 per 750 live births to 1 per 650 live births depending on the geographical area. Cleft palate is a feature of over 200 well defined syndromes of congenital malformations. Although at the present time it is still not feasible to completely prevent the occurrence of cleft palate, the consequences of this major malformation on maxillary structure, esthetic appearance, speech, feeding, and swallowing can be appropriately addressed and corrected by the intervention of an interdisciplinary team.en-USCleft PalateDiagnosisTreatmentArticle
