title: [Prosthetic treatment of patients with clefts. 3. The edentulous cleft patient].
abstract: Whereas the prosthetic treatment of an edentulous cleft patient with timely closure of the cleft promises to yield good results, the rehabilitation of an edentulous cleft patient with open cleft makes special demands on the prosthetist. Separate impressions for the denture and the obturator have proved a success at the Rostock University Clinic. On the basis of personal experience and results from re-examinations, the authors emphasize the value of regular ambulatory supervision.
