About this study

Official title: Effectiveness of a Customized 3D Printed Nostril Retainer Combined With Taping Vs. Taping Only on Enhancing the Nasolabial Esthetics and Maxillary Arch Dimensions in Infants With Unilateral Complete Cleft Lip and Palate: A Randomized Clinical Trial.

Lip taping was proven as simple, handy technique of PSIO for alveolar molding yielding enhanced maxillary arch dimensions in UCCLP infants.

The approach behind this study is to combine this simple step with a digitally designed 3D printed customized nasal molding device to enhance the naslolabial esthetics and maxillary arch dimensions in infants with unilateral complete cleft lip and palate, employing full digital workflow.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Nasolabial esthetics

    Nasal basal width, Collumella Length, Defetcted Nostril width and height, Interlabial gap will be measured in mm at 2 time points to evaluate the effect of the intervention.

    This will be performed on a 3D scan for the infants and through calibrated photographs

    Measured: 3 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Maxillary arch changes

    Interalveolar gap will be measured in mm through an intraoral scan for the infants at 2 time points

    Measured: 3 months
