“…The prevalence of hypodontia was not different between the right and left sides in permanent dentition (Table 2). This finding was identical to previous reports (Heliovaara et al, 2004;Mori et al, 2005;de Silva et al, 2008;Watanabe et al, 2011;Matern et al, 2012).…”

“…The literature reports an overall delay of 6 months in the formation of permanent teeth in children with complete cleft lip and palate 9,14,19,37 . There is also high prevalence of ectopic eruption of the permanent maxillary first molar, which is related to the smaller anteroposterior length and retropositioning of the maxilla in relation to the cranial base in individuals with clefts affecting the palate 9,14,19,37 .…”

The aim of this article is to present the pediatric dentistry and orthodontic treatment protocol of rehabilitation of cleft lip and palate patients performed at the Hospital for Rehabilitation of Craniofacial Anomalies - University of São Paulo (HRAC-USP). Pediatric dentistry provides oral health information and should be able to follow the child with cleft lip and palate since the first months of life until establishment of the mixed dentition, craniofacial growth and dentition development. Orthodontic intervention starts in the mixed dentition, at 8-9 years of age, for preparing the maxillary arch for secondary bone graft procedure (SBGP). At this stage, rapid maxillary expansion is performed and a fixed palatal retainer is delivered before SBGP. When the permanent dentition is completed, comprehensive orthodontic treatment is initiated aiming tooth alignment and space closure. Maxillary permanent canines are commonly moved mesially in order to substitute absent maxillary lateral incisors. Patients with complete cleft lip and palate and poor midface growth will require orthognatic surgery for reaching adequate anteroposterior interarch relationship and good facial esthetics.

“…Patients with CLP have a higher prevalence of anomalies in number or shape of teeth adjacent to the alveolar cleft 9 . In some cases, these teeth need to be extracted due to mispositioning or malformation and local anesthesia is an important step for a successful extraction procedure, avoiding distress to patients and professional anxiety.…”

Patients with cleft lip and palate usually present dental anomalies of number, shape, structure and position in the cleft area and the general dentist is frequently asked to restore or extract those teeth. Considering that several anatomic variations are expected in teeth adjacent to cleft areas and that knowledge of these variations by general dentists is required for optimal treatment, the objectives of this paper are: 1) to describe changes in the innervation pattern of anterior teeth and soft tissue caused by the presence of a cleft, 2) to describe a local anesthetic procedure in unilateral and bilateral clefts, and 3) to provide recommendations to improve anesthetic procedures in patients with cleft lip and palate. The cases of 2 patients are presented: one with complete unilateral cleft lip and palate, and the other with complete bilateral cleft lip and palate. The patients underwent local anesthesia in the cleft area in order to extract teeth with poor bone support. The modified anesthetic procedure, respecting the altered course of nerves in the cleft maxilla and soft tissue alterations at the cleft site, was accomplished successfully and the tooth extraction was performed with no pain to the patients. General dentists should be aware of the anatomic variations in nerve courses in the cleft area to offer high quality treatment to patients with cleft lip and palate.

Dental Anomalies of Number in the Permanent Dentition of Patients with Bilateral Cleft Lip: Radiographic Study

Abstract: The present results suggest that the prevalence of hypodontia was higher in patients with complete cleft lip, and the prevalence of supernumerary teeth was higher in patients with incomplete cleft lip, in agreement with previous studies.
