Opis

The book is all about mangement of cleft lip and palate in indian population .Cleft lip and palate are complex anomalies with significant medical, psychological, and social implications. Their management requires early diagnosis, precise classification, multidisciplinary care, and long-term follow-up. Despite historical stigmas, advancements in medical science have made cleft care highly effective, offering affected individuals the potential for a normal life. Continued public awareness, improved prenatal care, and access to cleft centers are key to reducing the burden of this condition.Cleft lip and palate (CLP) are among the most common congenital deformities, resulting from the failure of facial structures to fuse during early fetal development. These anomalies may occur individually or together and affect 1 in every 700 live births globally. In India, nearly 28,600 children are born with clefts each year, highlighting the significant public health burden.
