title: The assessment of treatment outcome by evaluation of dental arch relationships in cleft lip/palate.
abstract: Cleft lip/palate (CLP) patients need an interdisciplinary team approach for optimal treatment, care and results. Evaluation of the treatment outcomes is essential to allow for identification and implementation of the highest possible standard of care. The aim of this paper is to present the less invasive methods of assessment of treatment outcomes by evaluation of dental arch relationships in both unilateral and bilateral CLP.
