[Specificity of prosthetic dental rehabilitation in cleft lip and palate sequels].
The same techniques are used for dental rehabilitation in cleft patients and non-cleft patients. The clinical state for cleft edentulous patients ranges from one missing tooth to maxillary loss. For cleft patients, several surgical procedures may have been performed to close the cleft lip and/or palate, so the patient will not always agree to a new surgical procedure for preprosthetic management. The main difference to take into account is the dental occlusion stability. If previous management of the cleft patient did not provide normal occlusion, dental rehabilitation is the alternative. We describe implant-supported prosthesis; implant stabilized prosthesis, bridge, and maxillofacial prosthesis.
