Abstract:

The congenital deformities of cleft lip and palate have significant effects on various physiological functions of the maxillofacial region including breathing. The team approach protocol mainly focuses on restoring appearance, speech, and occlusal function, instead of nasal breathing. In fact, there are significant structural anomalies in the nasal airway of patients with cleft lip and palate, which exert critical impacts on the patient ’ s quality of life. Therefore, on the basis of elucidating the anatomical anomalies associated with nasal breathing in patients with cleft lip and palate, this article reviews the influence of sequential treatment on nasal breathing, introduces commonly used assessment tools for nasal breathing, and provides references on how to better incorporate nasal breathing into the treatment planning for cleft lip and palate.

Key words: cleft lip and palate, team approach, breathing, nasal airway
