INTRODUCTION There are several types of congenital craniofacial anomalies, most frequent of which are orofacial clefts that encompass the cleft lip and palate (CLP), which occurs when embryonic facial processes fail to unite (1). The complications associated with CLP are maxillary growth aberrations and high occurrence of Class III malocclusions. In children with CLP, aberrations in number, size, shape, and period of tooth formation are more common than in the non-cleft population. Orthodontic abnormalities such as crowding, rotation, and malposition of teeth are also frequent in patients with CLP (2). ‘In the orthodontic context, an index is used to designate a rating or as a categorising system that assigns a numerical score or alphanumeric …show more content…

Goslon Yardstick 5-year-old index Dental model analysis Regarding both indices, no significant differences were found. However, the dental arch width showed some significant variations Table 1: Table of included 13 articles DISCUSSION GOSLON Yardstick The Great Ormond Street, London and Oslo, Norway (GOSLON) Yardstick was developed for categorising the degree of malocclusion (maxillary growth) with unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP). The GOSLON Yardstick was introduced by Mars et al. (4). Contrasting other systems, the GOSLON Yardstick is treatment-linked (e.g. anterior crossbite with retroclination of the incisors can be corrected more easily than anterior crossbite with normal incisor inclination) and is therefore more useful than a specific anomaly-score alone. Not only the enucleating effect but also the hereditary skeletal pattern is addressed by this scoring system, as it is based on the prospects for orthodontic rectification. The system was developed for categorising the degree of malocclusion in 10-year-old children with UCLP, examined in the late mixed or early permanent dentition (4). It categorises malocclusions in patients with UCLP according to antero-posterior arch, vertical labial segment, and transverse relationships. Fig 2 shows the different categories of the GOSLON’s

Sharp Teeth by Toby Barlow revolves around a dog pound near Pasadena, LA, where a dogcatcher named Anthony works. The dogcatchers he works with are often older people who have no interest in helping the dogs, rather do the job for the money. Some would even sell the most rabid, furious dogs to dog fighters in LA and Mexico. He despises his co-workers, but when the local police department begins to find several of them dead around their homes, he begins to worry.

Case history, oral peripheral exam and hearing screening are necessary components in the assessment process as each provides vital information regarding the child's medical and surgical history as well as current condition of oral structures and functioning of the ear. In addition to providing details regarding medical and surgical history, the case history will also alert the clinician to any previous treatment obtained and its effectiveness. The oral peripheral examination provides the opportunity for the clinician to assess the degree to which structural abnormalities affect the child's physical ability to manipulate the articulators. If a repair of the cleft has already been performed, the clinician should assess the adequacy of the repair (Pena-Brooks & Hegde,

“Cleft lip and cleft palate are birth defects that occur when a baby’s lip or mouth do not form properly during pregnancy. Together, these birth defects commonly are called “orofacial clefts.” As we also discussed in the lecture, the lip forms between the fourth and seventh week of pregnancy a cleft, or opening in the lip, happens when the tissues that make up the lip do not join completely together before birth. “Children with a cleft lip with or without a cleft palate or a cleft palate alone often have problems with feeding and speaking clearly, and can have ear infections. They also might have hearing problems and problems with their teeth”

Abstract Cleft lip and palate are the most common congenital maxillofacial anamalies. One of the problems to be addressed in such newborn is difficulty in feeding. Formation of a good seal around nipple can be difficult due to the incomplete formation of facial and palatal structures. Nasal regurgitation and choking are common in infants with cleft palate due to communication between the nasal and oral cavities. The case presented here is a 3-day-old neonate born with cleft lip and palate, assisted with a new feeding appliance for proper feeding.

I had recently scheduled a dentistry appointment that have become rare and far between due to the scarcity in available appointments. This appointment of mine was scheduled four months in advanced of the allotted hour and a half time frame. As this time was allotted for my dentistry appointment, they felt empowered to administer a no-call no-show appointment fee. This fee was erroneous and unexpected for the full-charge of the appointment – with no insurance coverage due to personal liability. Upon realizing the attribution of this fee to my medical account, I had attempted to dispute the material they had presented me to pay.

Teeth that are crooked or not in the right place can also detract from one 's appearance.
