Background Oro-facial clefts (OFCs) are formed due to a combination of genetic factors and environmental factors. Treatment is usually extensive and lasts till adult age. The treatment also includes a large portion of dental rehabilitation. Objective This study aims to look at the different dental anomalies associated with OFCs. Methods A total of 100 participants with OFCs were randomly selected from Clap centre Lahore. They were categorized into cleft lip (CL), cleft palate (CP), and both. Dental anomalies were recorded clinically and family history for OFCs was also recorded. Results Out of the 100 participants, 15 had CL only, 37 had a CP, and 48 had both CL and CP. Missing teeth and hypodontia were significantly associated with all OFCs (p-value > 0.05). Supernumerary teeth were only significantly associated with CP (p-value: 0.04). Other dental anomalies were not significant for OFCs. Conclusion OFCs in all its three forms are associated with dental irregularities. They can either be missing teeth or extra teeth. There is a strong need for dentists to be a part of the treatment planning of OFCs and to treat dental anomalies alongside the clefts.
背景 口面部裂隙(OFCs)是由遗传因素和环境因素共同作用形成的。治疗通常较为广泛,持续至成年期。治疗还包括很大一部分牙齿修复。 目的 本研究旨在观察与口面部裂隙相关的不同牙齿异常情况。 方法 从拉合尔克拉普中心随机选取100名头面部裂隙患者。他们被分为唇裂(CL)、腭裂(CP)以及唇腭裂患者。临床记录牙齿异常情况,并记录口面部裂隙的家族病史。 结果 在100名参与者中,15人仅患有唇裂,37人患有腭裂,48人同时患有唇裂和腭裂。牙齿缺失和缺牙与所有口面部裂隙均显著相关(p值>0.05)。多生牙仅与腭裂显著相关(p值:0.04)。其他牙齿异常与口面部裂隙无关。 结论 口面部裂隙的所有三种形式均与牙齿不规则有关。可能是牙齿缺失或多生牙。强烈需要牙医参与口面部裂隙的治疗规划,并在治疗裂隙的同时治疗牙齿异常。
