Cleft lip and palate is one of the most common craniofacial anomalies of humans. A child born with cleft lip and palate may experience difficulties while feeding due to lack of seal of the oral cavity due to incomplete facial and palatal structures. Difficulty in feeding leads to inadequate nutrition and affects the health of the infant. Feeding difficulties should be assessed and intervened as early as possible, as they are an important aspect of the multidisciplinary team approach in the management of cleft lip and palate. Feeding appliance is a favorable feeding option in these infants as it creates a separation between oral and nasal cavities and thus helps in creating a negative intraoral pressure during suckling. This case report represents a fabrication of feeding appliance for a 2-day-old neonate born with cleft lip and palate, using copper wire as a retainer for the appliance.

Purpose: The present study aimed to highpoint the feeding challenges of infants with cleft lip and/or palate (CLP) that caregivers and parents came across and analyse the different interventions they perform in the preoperative period. Design and methods: Parents of 100 infants with CLP were asked to complete the questionnaire. The feeding preparations and challenges with alternatives to overcome these difficulties were evaluated. Results: Forty-six percent of the parents that their infants were diagnosed prenatally received an education for feeding. Breastfeeding was not successful 77.9%. Infants affected with isolated cleft palate and cleft lip and palate reported difficulties and more complication than isolated cleft lip patients. Parents stated that 56% of the infants with cleft had stayed in the intensive care units following birth. On the other hand, 40% of the infants were fed by nasogastric or orogastric tube primely. Thirty-five percent of cleft palate patients used palatal obturators. Conclusions: The study highlights the feeding challenges that had been faced by parents, caregivers and health care providers.

A 56 year old man presented with one-sided cleft palate, affecting alveolar ridge in the upper left canine region. Patient was unable to eat and drink without having the food fall out through his mouths opening into his nose. During first visit, patient underwent x-ray analysis to identify how deeply the bone damage has affected his maxilla. It revealed deep bone penetration, connecting the base of the nose with the mouth. We suggested one of the most effective methods for treating these types of cases – a removable partial denture, which was made to work as an obturator at the same time, closing the space, which causes difficulties to the patient. This case report represents a rare presentation and treatment of cleft palate by using removable partial dentures (RPDs) to close the gap, connecting the patient’s mouth with the nose structures.
