A Comparative Evaluation of Presurgical Infant Orthopaedics of Modified Grayson's Technique With Rhinoplasty Appliance System in Patients With Unilateral Cleft Lip and Palate
In infants with UCLP, both techniques significantly impacted the alveolus and nasolabial region while reducing cleft defects. However, an intergroup comparison of both the treatment modalities showed similar effects on intraoral and extraoral parameters. Integrating RAS into PSIO protocols shows promise in treating lip-and-palate cleft deformities. The study emphasises the value of digital technology in enhancing PSIO protocols, with potential benefits for treatment standardisation and improvement in patient experience.
