Expert Surgical Correction for Cleft Lip and Palate
‍

Addressing Functional and Aesthetic Concerns
‍Cleft lip and palate repair involves a series of surgical procedures tailored to each patient's specific needs. The primary goal of cleft lip surgery is to close the separation, restore muscle function, and provide a more typical appearance of the lip. Cleft palate repair, on the other hand, aims to close the gap in the roof of the mouth, ensuring proper development of speech and reducing the risk of ear infections. Our skilled surgeons use precise techniques to minimize scarring and optimize the functional and aesthetic outcomes of the surgery.

‍A Journey of Care and Support
‍The treatment for cleft lip and palate often involves a long-term plan, starting from infancy through adolescence. This journey may include additional surgeries, dental care, orthodontic treatment, and speech therapy as the child grows. We coordinate a comprehensive treatment strategy that encompasses all aspects of care needed for optimal development and function.
