“…When comparing the cleft lip only or cleft palate only with the cleft lip and palate, the authors noticed that the latter showed a higher prevalence of caries. Zhu et al 6 found a higher prevalence of caries in cleft lip with or without palate. Byan et al 5 observed a higher percentage of caries in bilateral, as compared to unilateral, cleft lip and palate, and a higher prevalence of rampant caries in cleft palate.…”

The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of caries in children with cleft lip and/or palate aged 6-36 months of life. This study was conducted at the University of São Paulo School of Dentistry, Brazil. A total of 143 children were selected (73 male, 70 female), all of whom had at least two erupted teeth. The children were distributed as follows: 88 had cleft lip and palate, 35 had cleft palate, 20 had cleft lip. Dental caries disease was diagnosed according to criteria set by the World Health Organization. It was observed that 18.9% of the study children had caries. No correlation between prevalence of caries and gender or type of cleft was observed. Mean dmf-t was 0.47. The prevalence of caries was higher in the upper arch, and the most affected tooth was the central incisor (p = 0.001). Children with cleft lip and/or palate did not have high caries indices.

“…5 Studies have reported that children with cleft lip and/or palate are at a high risk of dental caries. Zhu et al 6 , Al-Wahadni et al 7 , and Stec-Slonic et al 8 observed that patients with a cleft condition, not only are at a high risk of caries, but also have an even higher prevalence of caries than individuals without cleft.…”

“…Regarding the oral health of the individual with CLP, regardless of the type of cleft, there is greater risk of dental caries, periodontal disease, and malocclusion [3,19,35]. According to Dahllof et al [14] and Hewson et al [16], children with oral clefts have 3.5 times more surfaces of decayed teeth than children without clefts, more likely evident in primary teeth.…”

Introduction and Objective: This study aimed to report the case of an eight-year-old patient with cleft lip and palate associated with undiagnosed syndrome presenting high level of carious lesions, difficulty on oral hygiene, no collaborative behavior and cariogenic diet. Case report: The patient underwent outpatient treatment for dental extraction and Atraumatic Restorative Treatment. Later at the following-up appointment, the child presented new active white spots and fractured restorations. Then, dental treatment under general anesthesia for amalgam restorations was indicated. Conclusion: We conclude that dental care under general anesthesia was an alternative treatment for the reported child in this clinical case that had a high prevalence of caries, cariogenic diet, loss of lip elasticity due to corrective surgeries, difficult access for oral hygiene and caregiver's fear to toothbrush near to the cleft.

“…Studies from different parts of the world have shown a higher prevalence of dental caries in children with CL/P in comparison with non-cleft controls (Bokhout, Hofman et al 1996, Hewson, McNamara et al 2001, Kirchberg, Treide et al 2004, Al-Wahadni, Alhaija et al 2005, Stec-Slonicz, Szczepanska et al 2007, Al-Dajani 2009, Zhu, Xiao et al 2010, Chopra, Lakhanpal et al 2014. However, conflicting results have been reported including comprehensive reviews (Paul and Brandt 1998, Lucas, Gupta et al 2000, Lages, Marcos et al 2004, Hasslöf and Twetman 2007, Jindal, McMeans et al 2011, Antonarakis, Palaska et al 2013).…”
