Cleft lip and palate management with maxillary expansion and space opening for a single tooth implant.
An adult Class I malocclusion with a unilateral cleft lip and palate is presented. The maxillary transverse deficiency was managed with orthopedic expansion and the missing lateral incisor with space opening, bone grafting, and single tooth implant. The mild maxillary retrognathia and deficient lip support was managed with dental compensation.
