Rev Cient Cienc Méd [online]. 2021, vol.24, n.1, pp.66-72.  Epub 01-Jul-2021. ISSN 2077-3323.  https://doi.org/10.51581/rccm.v24i1.343.

Cleft lip and /or palate is a common and multifactorial craniofacial anomaly, and may be associated with genetic and environmental factors. The repair of cleft palate often requires several surgical and non-surgical interventions by a multidisciplinary team. The improvement of surgical techniques reduced the prevalence of intra- and postoperative complications. However, as for any surgery, palatoplasty presents some inherent risks. Evaluating the surgical outcome is challenging due to the several influencing factors, including the cleft type and extent, patient's peculiarities, surgeon experience, technique adopted and postoperative management. The present case report described, and illustrated by images, a bilateral cleft lip and palate individual clinical data found posterior to palatal surgery, as well as its oral complications and proposed dental treatment plan to grant function and esthetics to the affected area.
