“…In clinical practice, we have also found that many parents of patients with CL/P pay too much attention to the improvement of their children's appearance and function while ignoring their children's performance in interpersonal communication, personality development and school achievement and attribute the patients' inadaptability in these aspects only to different personalities and characteristics. Previous studies have also found similar problems ( 72 – 74 ). In summary, although the burden of life care and medical care for parents is reduced as patients with CL/P grow up, we should still remind parents and provide parents with relevant professional services to promote the healthy growth of patients' psychology and society.…”

Background: Resilience has become a hot spot in the field of positive psychology to study life-change events. However, there were little information on resilience among the fathers and mothers of patients with cleft lip and/or palate respectively. The present study aimed to explore and compare the level and potential influential factors associated with resilience among fathers/mothers of patients with cleft lip and/or palate in China.Method: A cross-sectional study was carried out between April 2019 and July 2020 among fathers/mothers of patients with cleft lip and/or palate in two cleft lip and/or palate treatment centers in China. Sixty Nine fathers and 179 mothers of patients with cleft lip and/or palate were interviewed with a questionnaire on demographic variables and the Resilience Scale-14 (RS-14), Herth Hope Index (HHI), Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS), Revised Life Orientation Test (LOT-R), Parenting Stress Index-Short Form (PSI-SF) and Coping Health Inventory for Parents (CHIP). T-test/univariate one-way ANOVA, Pearson's r, hierarchical linear regression analysis were conducted to explore the influential factors of resilience.Results: Fathers of patients with cleft lip and/or palate had a higher level of resilience (77.77 ± 14.18) than mothers (74.52 ± 14.33) though without significance. Resilience was positively associated with hope, perceived social support, optimism and coping and negatively correlated with parenting stress both in the fathers and the mothers. Hierarchical linear regression analysis showed that hope (β = 0.400, P < 0.01), coping (β = 0.281, P < 0.05), job status, medical payments (β = −0.240, P < 0.05) were found to be associated with resilience among the fathers of patients with CL/P, and all four variables in the model could explain 42.8% of the variance in resilience; Hope (β = 0.225, P < 0.05), perceived social support (β = 0.194, P < 0.05), the age of patients (β = 0.189, P < 0.05) were found to be associated with resilience among the mothers, and all three variables in the model could explain 27.6% of the variance in resilience.Conclusion: Our study showed that, in China, fathers of patients with cleft lip and/or palate had a higher level of resilience than mothers though without significance. Hope was the only communal variable strongly associated with resilience among both the fathers and the mothers; besides, coping, job status and medical payments were found to be associated with resilience among the fathers; while perceived social support and the age of patients were found to be associated with resilience among the mothers. The results suggest that enhance hope in parents of patients with cleft lip and/or palate might greatly help improve their resilience. Besides, fathers and mothers need specific intervention to prompt their resilience.

“…Treating children with dental malformations in a multidisciplinary manner and referring them to the appropriate doctors is crucial. Cleft lip and/or cleft palate malformations often cause speech and hearing impairments, which may be a hindrance to effective communication [ 12 , 13 ]. Children with cleft palate, who often have severe speech impairments and other learning problems, require regular monitoring and intensive treatment not just for cleft-related disorders but also for the potential for other developmental issues, such as social and emotional difficulties.…”

Aim: The purpose of this survey was to assess the quality of life of patients with cleft lips and palates in relation to their dental health. Materials and methods: Between January 2022 and December 2022, 50 people between the age of eight and 15 years who had treatment for cleft lip and/or palate were part of a study. A questionnaire was administered to the subjects, including questions pertaining to their general well-being and dental hygiene. The information was gathered and subjected to statistical analysis through appropriate software, with the outcomes presented in the form of descriptive statistics. Result:The results of the research showed that those with cleft lip and palate had a significant negative effect on their oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL). The patients reported having trouble speaking, eating, and smiling, which caused them to feel self-conscious and isolated from other people. Conclusion: The study's findings show that those born with cleft lip and/or palate have far greater challenges in achieving and maintaining optimal oral health and a satisfying quality of life, which has repercussions for their overall health and happiness. The study's results may provide successful strategies for enhancing patients' OHRQoL who have had treatment for cleft lip and/or palate.

“…Extroversion has been associated in the literature with higher levels of health and quality of life and shown to have negative correlations with depression, anxiety, and negative affect; extroverted people have higher levels of emotional, psychological, and social well-being (Tian et al, 2019). In one study of adolescents with a cleft, Ajami et al (2018) reported no greater prevalence of social inhibition; however, De Oliveira et al (2015) reported more social inhibition. With regard to the lower scores in conscientiousness found in our study in children and adolescents with CL/P, overprotection by parents in response to perceived deficits in social, cognitive, and emotional aspects, as noted by Pinquart & Pfeiffer (2011) could be hypothesized as possible triggers.…”

Objectives: To analyze personality (Big Five Model) and cognitive–emotional variables in children and adolescents with a cleft lip/palate (s) in comparison to an equivalent peer sample without an orofacial cleft. Design: Cross-sectional study with data collected using self-reported questionnaires over 2 years. Setting: Data were collected during visits to health center dental clinics. Patients: Children and adolescents (aged 8-18 years) with nonsyndromic CL/P (n = 60) and without a cleft (n = 60). Method: Patients completed questionnaires with assistance as needed from a member of the research team. Main Outcome Measures: Children’s Perceived Self-Efficacy, Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (child version), Big Five Questionnaire for Children, and Alexithymia Questionnaire for Children. Results: When accounting for age, children with CL/P had normative self-efficacy and cognitive–emotional regulation strategies, with the protective factor of significantly lower rumination than peers. Children with CL/P were significantly lower on the Big Five personality areas of conscientiousness, openness to experience, extraversion, and agreeableness along with significantly higher neuroticism. They were similarly significantly higher than peers for alexithymia. Conclusion: Children with CL/P showed strengths in self-efficacy typical of peers and less use of some maladaptive coping strategies; however, they also had higher levels of alexithymia and risk factors associated with the Big Five Model of personality. Strategies may be clinically useful that maximize areas of strength to support children with CL/P in expressing their emotions to reduce alexithymia, coping with of negative affect, and building assertiveness.
