Popis: | Background: The main goal of presurgical orthopedics (PSO) for patients with bilateral cleft lip and palate is to correct the protruded and/or twisted premaxilla. However, PSO is associated with the risk of uncontrolled development of the vomer, which has received little attention to date. Solution: We present a removable orthodontic device that can be used to keep or align the vomer and the premaxilla in the midline during preoperative molding of cleft segments independently and 3 dimensionally. |
