There is little published regarding the overall orthodontic burden of care for these patients. <\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Aim:<\/jats:title><jats:p> To assess the orthodontic burden of care for patients with a cleft lip and\/or palate. <\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Method:<\/jats:title><jats:p> Data were collected retrospectively from all consecutive cleft patients who had completed orthodontic treatment between January 2014 and December 2015 at Great Ormond Street Hospital, London, United Kingdom. <\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title><jats:p> Forty-two patients were included in the study: Twenty-three patients with a cleft lip and palate; nine with an isolated cleft palate; eight with cleft lip and alveolus; and two with cleft lip. The mean age of orthodontic treatment commencement was 13.4 years (range = 8.9\u201318.2 years) with a mean duration of 3.4 years (range = 1.3\u20138.3 years). An average of 44 appointments were required with an orthodontist (range = 18\u201398 appointments). <\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title><jats:p> The orthodontic burden of care for patients with cleft lip and\/or palate must not be underestimated. The duration of treatment varies depending on the type of cleft diagnosis and whether orthognathic surgery will be required. From this study, a patient with cleft lip and\/or palate required an average of 44 orthodontic appointments and a mean duration of treatment of 3.4 years in order to complete their treatment. This is a considerable burden to patients and their guardians, which they must be informed of before commencement of orthodontic treatment. <\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/1465312518823010","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,3,1]],"date-time":"2019-03-01T14:49:01Z","timestamp":1551451741000},"page":"63-67","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":43,"title":["Orthodontic burden of care for patients with a cleft lip and\/or palate"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"46","author":[{"given":"Othman","family":"Hameed","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Kings College London Hospital & Royal Surrey County Hospital, London, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Nima","family":"Amin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Eastman Dental Hospital, London, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Priya","family":"Haria","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Great Ormond Street Hospital, London, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Brijesh","family":"Patel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Great Ormond Street Hospital, London, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Norman","family":"Hay","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Great Ormond Street Hospital, London, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,1,23]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-1465312518823010","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1597\/14-274"},{"key":"bibr2-1465312518823010","volume-title":"Fixed Appliances Leaflet","author":"British Orthodontic Society","year":"2018"},{"key":"bibr3-1465312518823010","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/oxfordjournals.ejo.a035999"},{"key":"bibr4-1465312518823010","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/01.ede.0000254430.61294.c0"},{"key":"bibr5-1465312518823010","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1597\/07-019"},{"key":"bibr6-1465312518823010","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1597\/08-003.1"},{"key":"bibr7-1465312518823010","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4103\/1305-7456.178317"},{"key":"bibr8-1465312518823010","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1597\/02-055"},{"key":"bibr9-1465312518823010","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1597\/1545-1569_2001_038_0020_clapci_2.0.co_2"},{"key":"bibr10-1465312518823010","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1597\/02-119.1.1"},{"key":"bibr11-1465312518823010","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ajodo.2015.09.020"}],"container-title":["Journal of Orthodontics"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/1465312518823010","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/full-xml\/10.1177\/1465312518823010","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/1465312518823010","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,3,1]],"date-time":"2025-03-01T00:14:35Z","timestamp":1740788075000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1177\/1465312518823010"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2019,1,23]]},"references-count":11,"journal-issue":{"issue":"1","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2019,3]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1177\/1465312518823010"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/1465312518823010","relation":{},"ISSN":["1465-3125","1465-3133"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1465-3125","type":"print"},{"value":"1465-3133","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2019,1,23]]}}}
