Nasoalveolar Molding in Unilateral Cleft Lip and Palate: A Three‐Dimensional Analysis
This study demonstrated the significant morphological changes induced by pre-surgical nasoalveolar molding (NAM) in patients with unilateral cleft lip and palate through a three-dimensional analysis. There was a notable reduction in cleft width, inward rotation of the greater segment and changes in arch dimensions.
