Cleft and Craniofacial Orthodontics provides a comprehensive reference for managing patients with orofacial clefts and complex craniofacial conditions from birth to skeletal maturity.
Cleft and Craniofacial Orthodontics is a detailed reference work on the management of these conditions. It covers the full spectrum of patient care, offering orthodontists, plastic and oral and maxillofacial surgeons, speech and language therapists, paediatric dentists, and prosthodontists the information necessary to evaluate and treat these conditions. Emphasising a multidisciplinary team approach, the book aids clinicians in developing a complete plan for their patients.
Each chapter is organised to reflect clinical practice, making it easy to apply the information to the treatment setting. Additionally, a companion website offers video clips of surgical and orthodontic procedures to further aid reader comprehension and application.
Sample topics covered in the book include:
- Introduction to orofacial clefting: cleft lip and palate anatomy, cleft types and classification, epidemiology, and genetics of cleft lip and palate
- Early management of orofacial clefting: prenatal diagnosis and counselling, feeding infants with clefts, and development of nasoalveolar moulding therapy
- Orthodontic treatment: interceptive orthodontics, management of anteroposterior and transverse discrepancies, preparation for alveolar bone grafting, and combined orthodontic-orthognathic management
- Orthodontic and multidisciplinary management of twenty complex craniofacial conditions including craniofacial microsomia, Treacher-Collins syndrome, and syndromic craniosynostosis
Orthodontists, plastic surgeons, craniofacial surgeons, oral and maxillofacial surgeons, speech and language therapists, paediatric dentists, prosthodontists, and otolaryngologists can use this book to gain essential knowledge on managing patients with orofacial clefts and complex craniofacial conditions, and understand how to apply that knowledge in practical patient settings.
