Presurgical Orthopedic Treatment Using Modified Nostril Retainers in Patients With Unilateral Cleft Lip With or Without Cleft Palate.

This study aimed to present a new technique for presurgical orthopedic treatment of patients with unilateral cleft lip with or without cleft palate (UCL+/-P) by means of modified nostril retainers manufactured using a special mold with soft acrylic or orthodontic acrylics material. Nasal molding with the modified nostril retainer is considerably effective and comfortable for the patient. (C) 2017 by Mutaz B. Habal, MD.
