Abstract

This review article presents an overview of craniofacial malformations and the role of the orthodontist in their management. The first part of this article focuses on cleft lip and palate, followed by more complex deformities including craniosynostosis and craniofacial microsomia. The main features of these anomalies are discussed as well as the clinical problems seen in this group of patients. The emphasis is on the role of the orthodontist in the multi-disciplinary management of these cases.
