The team consists of a family physician, plastic surgeon, orthodontist, prosthodontist, otolaryngologist, speech therapist, audiologist and social worker. A cleft lip is usually repaired when the child weighs 10 lb., is 10 weeks old and has 10 Gm. of hemoglobin. Defects of the secondary palate are repaired between one and two years of age; residual lip or nasal deformities are corrected before the child starts school. Further cosmetic surgery is delayed until adolescence, when facial growth has been completed.
该团队由一名家庭医生、一名整形外科医生、一名正畸医生、一名修复牙医、一名耳鼻喉科医生、一名言语治疗师、一名听力学家和一名社会工作者组成。唇裂通常在婴儿体重达到10磅、10周大且血红蛋白含量为10克时进行修复。继发腭部的缺陷在1至2岁之间修复；残留的唇部或鼻部畸形在孩子上学前矫正。进一步的美容手术推迟到青春期，此时面部生长已完成。
