The cast model evaluation of cleft and palate infants Background: Cleft Lip and Palate (CLP) is one of the most common congenital malformations in craniofacial area. In this study sex, age, anterior cleft width, midpalatal and posterior palatal width values were evaluated in CLP patients who referred to Orthodontic Department of Gaziantep University, Dentistry Faculty. Methods:In this study 39 CLP patients' records were examined. Age, gender and cleft types of the patients were evaluated and measurements were performed on the cast models. C and c' (canine area), t and t' (tuber area), mp and mp' (middle alveolar arch width at half the distance between C and T points) were used as reference points. Descriptive statistics were done using SPSS V.19.0. Results: Bilateral cleft patients were 24% of overall CLP patients. Isolated palate cleft patients were 20% and unilateral cleft %56 of overall CLP patients. In bilateral cleft patients group average age was 24.33±24.69 days, %66.7 of group (6 patients) were boys, average of anterior cleft width 13.23±3.06, midpalatal width 32.67±3.58, postpalatal width 29.25±2.78 mm. In isolated palate cleft patients group average of age 68.37±58.04 days, %37.5 of group (3 boy) were boys, average of anterior cleft width 0mm, midpalatal width 30.71±2.11mm, postpalatal width 27.17±2.42 mm. In unilateral cleft patients group average of age 31±30.11 days, %54.5 of group (12 boy) were boys, average of anterior cleft width 10.14±3.12mm, midpalatal 35.74±3.05 mm, postpalatal width 31.35±3.22 mm. Conclusion:Unilateral and bilateral clefts were most common in boys. Isolated palate cleft were most common in girls. Anterior cleft width was most common in bilateral cleft. Midpalatal and posterior palatal widths were most common in unilateral cleft patients. The age of application was lower in bilateral cleft patients than unilateral patients. Patients who applied our clinic were treated with Hotz plate or nasal molding appliances, and we will make a long term follow-up to compare the initial and posttreatment values.
