There is Help for Cleft Lip and Palate Did you know cleft lip and cleft palate are the most common birth differences in the United States? At Nemours Children’s Health System, there are a wide variety of specialists focused on helping children overcome these issues and grow into strong, confident, young adults who are not limited or defined by facial differences. However, the most important thing to understand is that it’s critical to get cleft lip or palate treated when the child is young. This dramatically increases the likelihood your child will experience a healthy life. If your baby has a cleft lip, the surgery (called cheiloplasty) should take place when your baby is about three months old. If your baby has a cleft palate, the surgery (called palatoplasty) should occur when your baby is 10-12 months old. Waiting any longer can cause repair to be more difficult and less successful. It’s also important to make sure your feeding baby is getting the nutrition he or she needs. Mending a cleft lip, palate or both is vitally important to your child living a happy, healthy life.
