Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The aim of the present study is to determine the effect of surgically repaired UCLP on dental arch dimensions and the need for orthodontic intervention in comparison with other healthy children , the presence of dental anomalies and the best possible standards of care among this group of Egyptian children.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Other: Alginate impressions , Photographic data and panoramic radiographs .

Detailed Description

In arranging to distinguish and implement the best possible standards of care for UCLP children by the pediatric dental practitioner, evaluation of early treatment results after essential surgical repair of cleft lip and palate with respect to arch dimensions is fundamental. Although the dental arch dimensions for these children have been evaluated in previous studies , few examiners in Egypt handled this issue Due to racial contrasts in improvement of the dental arch and growth .The deficiency of data in Egypt tending to this insufficient assemble of children presents a gap that prevents the transport of fitting dental care to them. This is considered objective to fulfill this gap by spotting the most characteristics of dental arch dimensions in surgically repaired UCLP children and compares them with those of sound, coordinating, non-cleft.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Exposure group

group of surgically treated unilateral cleft lip and palate Egyptian children aged 9_12years

Other: Alginate impressions , Photographic data and panoramic radiographs .
Upper and lower alginate impressions will be poured and dental casts produced and converted to 3D digital cast using a 3D scanner-(3Shape )-the 3D data will be imported to a revers modeling software . Also Photographic data using Canon750 camera and panoramic radiographs to be taken.

Control group

group of healthy Egyptian children aged 9_12years

Other: Alginate impressions , Photographic data and panoramic radiographs .
Upper and lower alginate impressions will be poured and dental casts produced and converted to 3D digital cast using a 3D scanner-(3Shape )-the 3D data will be imported to a revers modeling software . Also Photographic data using Canon750 camera and panoramic radiographs to be taken.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Inter canine maxillary arch width at the gingival level and 2. Inter molar maxillary arch Width at gingival level 3. Maxillary arch depth [Participants will be examined for once "day1"]

    Inter canine maxillary arch width at the gingival level(between cusp tips of the right and left primary or permanent canines) 2. Inter molar maxillary arch Width at the gingival level(between mesio- buccul cusp tips of right and left first molars) 3. Maxillary arch depth( from the median point between central incisors to the tangent line between the distal surfaces of the second primary molars or mesial surfaces of first permanent molar.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Percentage occurrence of dental abnormalities. [Participants will be examined for once " day 1"]

    Percentage occurrence of hypodontia and other dental abnormalities.
