Dr Mohammad Bayats explanation about cleft lip and palate

Cleft lip and palate surgeries are procedures that help repair and reconstruct the structure of the lip and palate in children with congenital clefts. Cleft lip typically appears as a gap in the upper lip, while a cleft palate is a separation or gap in the roof of the mouth. These surgeries are usually performed in multiple stages at different times. The primary goal of these surgeries is to restore the natural appearance and function of the mouth, improving speech and feeding in the child. Surgeries are typically performed in the early years of life to support the proper growth and development of the child.
