Complex treatment of children with cleft lip and palate is complicated and multi-step. Treatment is conducted by high-skilled specialists. The organization and execution of this complex are possible only at the large specialized center. Coordinator of this work is the maxillofacial surgeon. The performance of rehabilitation circuits includes preoperative orthodontic and orthopedic treatment, operative intervention (reconstructive and plastic surgery), orthodontic and orthopedic treatment after operation. Post-operative conservative treatment prevents the development of secondary deformities of the nose and upper lip. Professional psychological help and long supervision promote the achievement of good social adaptation of patients with congenital cleft lip and palate, improvement of their health.
