The focus of this paper is the pediatric dental care of Cleft Lip and Palate (CLP) children and the role of the pediatric dentist in the CLP team. The management of children with cleft lip and palate presents many challenges and a multidisciplinary and prepared team is always required. Affected individuals present a multiplicity of problems: effective management involves a wide range of specialities. The value of a multidisciplinary team is widely known and mentioned in the literature, but very few papers focus on the role and the importance of the pediatric dentist. Therefore, the purpose of this article is to underline the role of the pediatric dentist as a member of the cleft lip and palate team which ranges from prenatal counseling, presurgical prevention and orthopedics, to post-treatment rehabilitation and restoration.
本文的重点是唇腭裂（CLP）儿童的儿科牙科护理以及儿科牙医在 CLP 团队中的作用。唇腭裂儿童的管理带来了许多挑战，始终需要多学科和有准备的团队。受影响的个体存在多种问题：有效的管理涉及广泛的专业领域。多学科团队的价值在文献中广为人知和提及，但很少有论文关注儿科牙医的作用和重要性。因此，本文的目的是强调儿科牙医作为 CLP 团队成员的作用，涵盖了从产前咨询、术前预防和矫形、到治疗后的康复和修复。
