Evaluation of temporomandibular fossa and mandibular condyle in adolescent patients affected by bilateral cleft lip and palate using cone beam computed tomography

Abstract: The purposes of this study were to investigate the position of the mandibular condyle and temporomandibular fossa between the adolescent patients affected by bilateral cleft lip and palate (BCLP) and well-matched controls without any cleft by using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). The study sample consisted of 17 patients (7 females and 10 males; mean age, 14.27 ± 2.83 years) affected by BCLP and 17 patients (6 females and 11 males; mean age, 14.27 ± 2.12 years) as age-and sex-matched control group withou… Show more

“…The cleft lip and palate (CLP) are the most common congenital malformations of the craniofacial region, with an incidence of 1 per 700 live births. Prevalence can be affected by sex, race, ethnic groups, geographical regions, and socioeconomic conditions [ 1 , 2 , 3 ]. The etiology of CLP is multifactorial, involving genetic and environmental factors, namely smoking consumption and ionizing radiation [ 2 , 4 , 5 , 6 ].…”

“…Recently, some gene-environment interactions have been suggested as factors that increase the risk of cleft, such as MTHFR polymorphisms and maternal folate intake, alcohol and ADHIC variants and NATI 1095 polymorphism and lack of maternal multivitamins [ 8 , 9 , 10 ]. The main complaints of CLP patients are functional and aesthetic, affecting mainly mastication, hearing, phonation, dentofacial development and the correct function of the upper airways [ 2 , 3 ].…”
