Abstract
Oral health was studied in 31 children aged 10-12 years with cleft lip and palate and compared to 31 noncleft controls matched for sex and age. We found a difference in the prevalence and activity of caries with increase in cleft lip and palate patients. The unilateral crossbite and the congenitally missing teeth were more common in cleft palate children and the supernumerary teeth were fewer. Almost all children used fluoride tablets.Entities:
