    Area of Science:

    • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
    • Orthodontics
    • Craniofacial Anomalies

    Background:

    • Untreated cleft lip often results in rotated central superior incisors in patients with permanent dentition.
    • Rotated teeth can negatively impact dental arch aesthetics and potentially interfere with surgical outcomes.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present and evaluate a novel

    Main Methods:

    • A technique termed

    Main Results:

    • The dental rotation technique successfully corrects rotated central incisors.
    • This method prevents a hard structure (rotated tooth) from impinging on mucosal sutures post-lip closure.
    • Improved aesthetic appearance of the dental arch is achieved.

    Conclusions:

    • The dental rotation technique is an effective method for managing rotated central incisors in cleft lip patients.
    • This approach offers both functional and aesthetic benefits, enhancing patient outcomes.
