Craniofacial growth in complete unilateral cleft lip and palate: a roentgeno-cephalometric study.

I Hayashi, M Sakuda, K Takimoto

    The Cleft Palate Journal
    |July 1, 1976
    PubMed
    Summary

    Unilateral complete cleft lip and palate significantly alters craniofacial growth, leading to vertical growth patterns and underdeveloped midfacial structures. These growth differences are more pronounced in females with clefts.

    Area of Science:

    • Craniofacial Biology
    • Orthodontics
    • Pediatric Dentistry

    Background:

    • Unilateral complete cleft lip and palate (UCLP) presents complex challenges in craniofacial development.
    • Understanding growth patterns is crucial for effective treatment planning and outcomes.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate and compare craniofacial growth patterns in individuals with UCLP versus non-cleft controls.
    • To identify specific skeletal and dental characteristics associated with UCLP.

    Main Methods:

    • Lateral roentgenographic cephalograms were analyzed from 255 subjects (135 males, 120 females) with UCLP and 240 controls.
    • Subjects ranged in age from 4 to 18 years, encompassing various growth stages.

    Main Results:

    Related Experiment Videos

    • Cleft group exhibited a more vertical growth trend, flattened cranial base, and a smaller, posteriorly positioned maxilla.
    • Reduced ramal height, obtuse gonial angle, retrognathic chin, and less convex skeletal profile were observed in the cleft group.
    • Incisor inclination, altered facial heights, and more pronounced midfacial underdevelopment in females were key findings.

    Conclusions:

    • UCLP significantly impacts craniofacial morphology, characterized by vertical growth and midfacial hypoplasia.
    • Sex-based differences in growth severity exist, with females showing more pronounced underdevelopment.
    • Cephalometric analysis provides valuable insights for managing UCLP-related growth disturbances.
