RESUMO
The assessment of rehabilitation outcomes requires a patient documentation protocol, including records obtained at standardized ages, to compare different types of surgeries, their effects, as well as between different rehabilitation centers. The aim of this paper was to present proper trays for babies with different types of cleft lip and palate, which are used in the outpatient routine at Hospital of Rehabilitation of Craniofacial Anomalies/USP (HRAC/USP). The customized trays are made with self-curing acrylic resin. The tray must have suitable depth to copy the buccal sulcus, and wax is usually applied to contour the tray edge, and the adjustment of the tray to the fornix, making the tray specific for each child. The impression precludes the utilization of dental casts for diagnosis, treatment plan, and research measurements. In the clinical practice at HRAC-USP, it was observed that customized trays increased the quality of impression, accurately reproducing anatomical features of dental arches of babies with oral clefts.

Introdução: A foniatria tem interesse em fissura labiopalatina (FLP) devido à complexidade em aspectos de fala, linguagem e audição. Objetivo: No contexto da avaliação foniátrica em crianças escolares com fissura labiopalatina, o objetivo do estudo de múltiplos casos foi descrever a interferência de fatores clínicos no desempenho em testes da função perceptiva auditiva de linguagem, assim como a associação entre eles. Método: Trinta crianças, entre 6 anos e 2 meses e 9 anos e 11 meses, foram avaliadas pelo médico foniatra, em serviço interdisciplinar de tratamento da FLP: 13 (43%) fissura pós-forame incisivo e 17 (57%) fissura transforame incisivo. Foram descritos os fatores clínicos (incluindo tipo de fissura, idade na avaliação, sexo, condição socioeconômica, desempenho escolar, realização de fototerapia, exame audiológico e outros) e o desempenho em testes de discriminação auditiva, memória auditiva e consciência fonológica, incluindo a associação entre eles. Resultados: Não houve diferença significativa entre os grupos de fissura e médias de idade (p=0,618), sexo (p=0,431), nível socioeconômico (p=0,580) e desempenho escolar (p=0,785).A porcentagem de crianças que fez terapia é maior no grupo de fissura transforame (94,1%). Alterações nos testes: 4 crianças (13,3%) discriminação auditiva, 6 (20%) memória auditiva e 8 (26,7%) consciência fonológica. Os casos com desempenho escolar insatisfatório, mais tempo de fonoterapia e piores médias do limiar de reconhecimento de fala tiveram desempenho pior em memória auditiva e consciência fonológica. Conclusão: A avaliação foniátrica possibilitou o apontamento de fatores clínicos da fissura, que parecem, de alguma forma, interferir no desenvolvimento da linguagem destas crianças.
Introduction: Phoniatrics is interested in cleft lip and palate (CLP) due to the complexity in aspects of speech, language and hearing. Objective: In context of phoniatric evaluation in schoolchildren with CLP, the objective of multiple cases study was to describe the interference of clinical factors in the performance in tests of auditory perceptual function of language, as well as the association between them. Method: Thirty children, between 6 years and 2 months and 9 years and 11 months, were evaluated by Phoniatric doctor, in interdisciplinary treatment service for CLP: 13 (43%) cleft palate and 17 (57%) cleft lip and palate. Clinical factors (including type of cleft, age at evaluation, sex, socioeconomic status, school performance, speech therapy, audiological examination and others) and performance in tests of auditory discrimination, auditory memory and phonological awareness were described, including the association between them. Results: There was no significant difference between the cleft groups and the mean age (p = 0.618), sex (p = 0.431), socioeconomic level (p = 0.580) and school performance (p = 0.785). The percentage of children who had attended therapy is higher in cleft lip and palate group (94.1%). Changes in tests: 4 (13.3%) auditory discrimination, 6 (20%) auditory memory and 8 (26.7%) phonological awareness. The cases with unsatisfactory school performance, more speech therapy time and worse speech recognition thresholds had a worse performance in auditory memory and phonological awareness. Conclusion: The phoniatric evaluation made it possible to identify clinical factors of the cleft, which seems, in some way, to interfere in the language development of these children.
Introducción: Foniátrica está interesado en el labio leporino y paladar hendido debido a la complejidad en los aspectos del habla, el lenguaje y la audición. Objetivo: El contexto de la evaluación foniatría en escolares con labio leporino y paladar hendido, el objetivo del estudio de múltiples casos fue describir la interferencia de factores clínicos en el desempeño en las pruebas de la función auditiva perceptiva del lenguaje, así como la asociación entre ellos. Método: Treinta niños, entre 6 años y 2 meses y 9 años y 11 meses de edad, fueron evaluados por un médico foniátrico, en un centro de tratamiento interdisciplinario para labio leporino y paladar hendido: 13 (43%) paladar hendido y 17 (57%) labio leporino y paladar hendido. Se describieron y verificaron los factores clínicos (incluido el tipo de hendidura, la edad en la evaluación, el sexo, el estado socioeconómico, el rendimiento escolar, la fototerapia, el examen audiológico y otros) y el rendimiento en las pruebas de discriminación auditiva, memoria auditiva y conciencia fonológica, incluida la asociación entre ellos. Resultados: No hubo diferencias significativas entre los grupos de hendidura y la edad media (p = 0.618), sexo (p = 0.431), nivel socioeconómico (p = 0.580) y rendimiento escolar (p = 0.785). El porcentaje de niños que se sometieron a terapia es mayor en el grupo de paladar hendido y labio leporino (94.1%). Cambios en las pruebas: 4 niños (13.3%) discriminación auditiva, 6 (20%) memoria auditiva y 8 (26.7%) conciencia fonológica. Los casos con un rendimiento escolar insatisfactorio, más tiempo de terapia del habla y peores umbrales de reconocimiento del habla tuvieron un peor rendimiento en la memoria auditiva y la conciencia fonológica. Conclusión: La evaluación foniátrica permitió identificar factores clínicos de la hendidura, que de alguna manera, parece interferir en el desarrollo del lenguaje de estos niños.

This study aimed to compare the linear dimensions of the dental arches of adult patients with complete unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP) after orthodontic and prosthetic treatment with fixed partial dentures (FPD) to patients without clefts, using 3D technology. This retrospective longitudinal study sample consisted of 35 subjects divided into two groups. Included in this sample were 15 complete UCLP individuals who had received orthodontic treatment before rehabilitation with a fixed partial denture (FG), as well as 20 patients without cleft as control group (CG). All patients were aged between 18 and 30 years. Digital dental casts were obtained in two stages: (T1) end of orthodontic treatment and (T2) one year after prosthetic rehabilitation (FG); and (T1) end of orthodontic treatment and (T2) one year after removal of the orthodontic appliance (CG). Intercanine, interfirst premolar and intermolar distances, and incisor-molar length were obtained. A precalibrated and trained examiner performed the assessments. Intergroup differences between T2 and T1 were compared between the groups using the t test or Mann-Whitney test with a significance level of 5% (p<0.05). The intercanine distance variation (T2-T1) showed statistical difference (p=0.005) increasing in the FG group and decreasing in the CG group. In the interfirst premolar distance variation, FG decreased, while CG increased with statistically significant difference (p=0.008). The intercanine distance of individuals with cleft showed stability, while that of the CG had no stability. The CG showed stability in the interfirst premolar distance, while FG had no stability. These findings showed that the FPD is capable of restricting orthodontic results, leading to a stabilization of the dental arches.

The multidisciplinary teams involved in the treatment of individuals with cleft lip and palate are challenged when implants are indicated in the cleft area. Difficulties include obtaining a healthy peri-implant area and, especially, obtaining the natural-looking papilla essential for esthetic success. The area affected by the cleft has a bone deficiency, which is typically augmented with an alveolar bone graft at adolescence. Guidelines for the 3-dimensional placement of implants at the cleft area are presented based on clinical reports. The patients were followed up for at least 1 year. Adoption of the proposed guidelines enables satisfactory esthetic and functional outcomes in patients with cleft lip and palate.

The impact of oral rehabilitation on masticatory function and oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) may vary with the experience of the individual with tissue loss. Our hypothesis is that patient-centered outcomes vary among adults who have experienced large defects in the maxilla due to congenital or acquired conditions even after oral rehabilitation to restore aesthetics and function. This study compared OHRQoL, perceived masticatory ability, maximum bite force (MBF), and symptoms of pain and depression among subjects with acquired (edentulous maxilla) and congenital (cleft lip and palate) loss of oral tissues in the maxilla after dental treatment. A gender-matched sample (n = 60) of cleft lip and palate (CLP), maxillary denture wearers (DENT) and controls (CONT) was recruited. OHRQoL was assessed using OHIP-14. Chewing was evaluated through a masticatory ability questionnaire and by MBF. The RDC/TMD Axis II questionnaire was used to assess symptoms of pain and depression. Data were analyzed by Fisher's test, Kruskal Wallis test, and Spearman correlation coefficients. CLP showed higher OHIP-14 and depression scores than DENT and CONT (p < 0.05). Sub-analysis by OHIP-14 items (%FOVO) showed higher prevalence of psychological impact for CLP and of functional impacts for DENT. The number of foods difficult to chew, of food textures difficult to chew, and avoided foods were similar between CLP and DENT. OHIP-14, MBF, and depression scores showed significant correlation (p < 0.05). The results suggest that adults with treated CLP or maxillary DENT have chewing impairment and lower MBF than healthy subjects, with different psychological and functional impacts.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the orthodontic burden of care of patients from a Brazilian rehabilitation center (Hospital for Rehabilitation of Craniofacial Anomalies, University of São Paulo [HRAC-USP]). DESIGN: Retrospective. SETTING: Hospital for Rehabilitation of Craniofacial Anomalies, University of São Paulo. INTERVENTIONS: One hundred files of unilateral complete cleft lip and palate patients who had consecutively finished orthodontic rehabilitation at HRAC-USP were evaluated from January 2011 to January 2013. The duration of orthodontic treatment, number of visits, kilometers traveled, number of appliances and surgical procedures performed were recorded. The sample was divided into 2 subgroups according to severity the interarch relation (Goslon Yardstick score) at the beginning of orthodontic treatment. Mann-Whitney test was applied for intergroup comparison ( P < .05). RESULTS: For the total sample (n = 100), the mean time of orthodontic treatment was 140.2 months, the mean number of orthodontic appointments was 61.8, the mean number of appliances was 10, the mean number of surgical procedures was 6.2, and the mean distance traveled to attend the center for orthodontic appointments was 38,978.5 km. The subgroup with the most severe malocclusion (Goslon yardsticks scores 4 and 5) showed a longer orthodontic treatment length, greater number of surgical procedures, and longer distance traveled than those presenting Goslon yardstick scores 1, 2, and 3. CONCLUSION: Patients with greater severity of the initial malocclusion experienced a higher burden of care than patients with less severity of the initial malocclusion. To reduce the burden of care, research and efforts should focus on minimizing maxillary growth deficiency related to primary surgery.

Introdução: A fissura labiopalatina é a malformação mais frequente da região da cabeça e afeta mais de 10 milhões de pessoas no mundo. O objetivo do estudo foi avaliar a autoestima em pacientes portadores de fissura labiopalatina em acompanhamento no Serviço de Cirurgia Plástica Craniomaxilofacial do Hospital de Clínicas de Porto Alegre, comparando-os com indivíduos não fissurados. Métodos: Estudo transversal contemporâneo, com 160 participantes, sendo 80 pacientes com fissura labiopalatina já submetidos a procedimentos cirúrgicos relacionados à afecção e, como grupo controle, 80 alunos e funcionários da rede pública de ensino. Um questionário para caracterizar o grupo e a escala de autoestima de Rosenberg foram utilizados para a coleta de dados. Resultados: Houve diferença significativa entre os grupos quanto ao estado civil, escolaridade e repetência escolar. Os pacientes com fissura labiopalatina apresentam níveis de autoestima menores em relação a indivíduos não afetados. Dentre eles, os subgrupos dos indivíduos com fissura bilateral, fissura completa, do gênero feminino, classe econômica D/E, baixa escolaridade, situação familiar reconstituída na infância e com resultados não satisfatórios em relação à comunicação, dentição e cicatriz de lábio também mostraram níveis de autoestima menores. Conclusão: Houve relação significativa entre fissura labiopalatina e baixa autoestima.
Introduction: Cleft lip and palate is the most frequent malformation of the head region and affects more than 10 million people worldwide. This study aims at evaluating the selfesteem in patients with cleft lip and palate and comparing that with the self-esteem of non-affected individuals during followup at the Department of Craniomaxillofacial Plastic Surgery of the Hospital de Clínicas of Porto Alegre. Methods: This is a cross-sectional, contemporary study with 160 participants, comprising 80 patients with cleft lip and palate who have already undergone surgical procedures for correcting the condition and 80 non-affected students and employees of the publicschool system as a control group. We used a questionnaire to characterize the group and the Rosenberg self-esteem scale for data collection. Results: There was a significant difference between groups in terms of marital status, schooling, and school retention. Patients with a cleft lip and palate had lower levels of self-esteem than non-affected individuals. Among them, the individuals with bilateral clefts or complete clefts; female gender; economic strata of D/E; low level of schooling; families reconstituted during childhood; and with unsatisfactory results concerning communication, dentition, and lip scar also showed lower levels of self-esteem. Conclusion: There was a significant relationship between cleft lip and palate and low self-esteem.

Objective This study analyzed the maintenance of lateral incisors in the dental rehabilitation of individuals with cleft lip and palate. Material and Methods The study was conducted on a tertiary craniofacial center and comprised retrospective analysis of panoramic and periapical radiographs of Caucasoid individuals with non-syndromic complete unilateral cleft lip and palate, analyzing all radiographs available on the records of each individual, from the first to the last up to 12 years of age. Overall, 2,826 records were reviewed to achieve a sample of 1,000 individuals. Among these, 487 individuals presented the permanent lateral incisors on both cleft and non-cleft sides, which were included in this study. Results The results were evaluated in percentages and by descriptive statistics. The association between maintenance of the lateral incisor and timing of alveolar bone graft were analyzed by the t test. Among the 487 individuals, 265 had not completed treatment, 62 presented insufficient information, and 44 concluded the treatment elsewhere. Among the remaining 116 individuals, the lateral incisor was extracted from 88 (75.86%) of them on the cleft side (CS) and from 23 (19.83%) people on the non-cleft side (NCS). The age at accomplishment of alveolar bone graft was significantly associated with maintenance of the lateral incisor on the cleft side (p<0.01). Most extractions were indicated because of the inadequate positioning on the CS and for midline correction on the NCS. Rehabilitation was primarily completed by orthodontic movement (53 individuals on the CS and 13 individuals on the NCS). Conclusion In conclusion, the lateral incisor on the cleft side was not maintained in most individuals. Positive relationship was observed between extraction of the lateral incisor and age at accomplishment of the alveolar bone graft, suggesting the need to anticipate the initial radiographic evaluation to enhance its maintenance and reduce the procedures required for rehabilitation.

ABSTRACT Objective: to correlate spirituality and religiosity with quality of life of adolescents with and without cleft lip and palate. Methods: cross-sectional and correlational study involving two groups: case group (n = 40) and comparison group (n = 40). The Duke University Religion Index (DUREL) and the World Health Organization Quality of Life Bref were used for data collection. The Mann-Whitney, Chi-Square, Student's t-test and Pearson's correlation tests were used in the statistical analyses, with a significance level of 5% (p ≤ 0.05). Results: organizational religiosity and overall quality of life were significantly higher in the case group (p = 0.031 and p = 0.012, respectively). As for quality of life, the Environment Domain was significantly higher in the case group (p < 0.001). In the correlation between religiosity and spirituality, non-organizational religiosity had a strong correlation (r = 0.62) with organizational religiosity (p < 0.001). In the correlation of religiosity and spirituality with quality of life, only a moderate correlation between spirituality and overall quality of life was identified (r = -0.35, p = 0.026). Conclusion: there was no relationship of religiosity and spirituality with quality of life among adolescents with cleft lip and palate for most aspects evaluated.
RESUMO Objetivo: correlacionar a espirutualidade e a religiosidade com a qualidade de vida de adolescentes com e sem fissura labiopalatina. Métodos: estudo transversal e correlacional, englobando dois grupos, caso (n= 40) e comparativo (n= 40). Para a coleta de dados, utilizou-se a Escala de Religiosidade de Durel e o World Health Organization Quality of Life Bref. Para a análise estatística, os testes de Mann-Whitney, Qui-Quadrado, t-Student e de Correlação de Pearson foram utilizados, com nível de significância de 5% (p≤0,05). Resultados: a religiosidade organizacional e a qualidade de vida global foram significativamente maiores no grupo caso (p=0,031 e p=0,012, respectivamente). Referente à qualidade de vida, o Domínio Meio Ambiente foi significativamente maior no grupo caso (p<0,001). Ao se correlacionar a religiosidade e a espiritualidade, a religiosidade não organizacional apresentou forte correlação (r=0,62) com a religiosidade organizacional (p<0,001). Ao se correlacionar a religiosidade e a espiritualidade com a qualidade de vida, identificou-se somente correlação moderada entre a espiritualidade e a qualidade de vida global (r=-0,35; p=0,026). Conclusão: evidenciou-se a não existência de relação entre a religiosidade e a espiritualidade com a qualidade de vida entre adolescentes com fissura labiopalatina, para a maioria dos aspectos avaliados.
