Cleft Lip and Palate Deformities

A cleft lip occurs when the right and left sides of an infant’s lips do not fully meet. A cleft palate occurs when the right and left sides of the roof of the mouth do not meet. Both defects are congenital.

Cleft lips and palates can be successfully corrected through surgery that brings the separated tissue together. A combination of reconstructive and plastic surgery can be used for the most aesthetically pleasing results. Dr. Marashi’s knowledge of oral and maxillofacial surgery makes him especially qualified to repair cleft lip and palate deformities. Contact us today to discuss your child’s options.
