  • Title: The treatment of secondary and residual dentofacial deformities in the cleft patient. Surgical and orthodontic therapy.
    Author: Posnick JC.
    Journal: Clin Plast Surg; 1997 Jul; 24(3):583-97. PubMed ID: 9246523.
    Abstract:
    The methods described to manage secondary jay deformities, resulting malocclusion, residual oronasal fistulas, and bony defects in adolescents born with a cleft are safe and reliable when carried out by an experienced cleft surgeon and team. They enhance the patient's quality of life and well-being. They also provide a stable foundation in which final soft-tissue lip and nose revisions may be carried out.
