Abstract
OBJECTIVES 1. To assess the skeletal class occlusion and lateral cephalometry in children with isolated cleft palates (non-Robin sequence) and 2. to identify associations between these findings and pre-palatoplasty cleft palate measurements. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. SETTING North American Institutional Tertiary Paediatric Center. PATIENTS Our cleft database was reviewed, and patients were included if they had an isolated cleft palate without a Robin Sequence diagnosis, had a Furlow palatoplasty and had available per operative cleft palate measurements and available lateral cephalogram between 6 and 8 years old. Thirty-two patients matched to inclusion criteria. INTERVENTION Furlow's Palatoplasty. MAIN OUTCOME AND MEASURES Cleft size at palatoplasty, cephalometric measurements and skeletal occlusal classes were analysed. ANOVA was used to test the association between cephalometric measurements and occlusal classes. Results are presented as means with a 95% confidence interval. The association between cleft measurements and cephalometric parameters was tested with Spearman Correlation (rs). RESULTS The skeletal occlusal outcome at 7 years old for this series of patients was: Class I: 19%; Class II: 59% and Class III: 22%. No single cleft measurement at palatoplasty was predictive of the skeletal occlusal outcome. A larger hard palate cleft was associated with a shorter antero-posterior maxilla. CONCLUSIONS The skeletal occlusal class outcomes were similar to those found in a previous study in the literature. The occlusal prognosis appears to be better than in patients with Robin Sequence or with an associated cleft lip. No preoperative measurement was found to be associated with the occlusal outcome.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to classify the skeletal phenotypes of adult patients with skeletal class III (C-III) malocclusion and unilateral or bilateral cleft lip and palate using principal component analysis and cluster analysis. The samples consisted of 81 adult C-III patients with cleft lip and palate (CLP) who underwent orthognathic surgery (OGS) or distraction osteogenesis (59 males and 22 females; 50 unilateral cleft lip and palate and 31 bilateral cleft lip and palate; mean age when lateral cephalograms were taken, 22.2±4.6 y). Thirteen angular and one ratio cephalometric variables were measured. Using 4 representative variables obtained from principal component analysis (SNA, SNB, Gonial angle, and Bjork sum), K-means cluster analysis was performed to classify the phenotypes. Then, statistical analysis was conducted to characterize the differences in the variables among the clusters. Five clusters were obtained from 3 groups: severely retrusive maxilla and moderately retrusive mandible group: cluster-1 (23.5%, severely hyperdivergent pattern), cluster-4 (27.2%, moderately hyperdivergent pattern), and cluster-5 (11.1%, normodivergent pattern); moderately retrusive maxilla and normal mandible group: cluster-2 (30.9%, normodivergent pattern); normal maxilla and moderately protrusive mandible group: cluster-3 (7.4%, normodivergent pattern). Although skeletal phenotypes were diverse, distribution of sex and cleft type did not differ among 5 clusters ( P >0.05). Sixty-two percent of cleft patients showed a severely retrusive maxilla and moderately retrusive mandible (cluster-1, cluster-4, and cluster-5), which indicated that these are the main cause of skeletal C-III malocclusion in CLP patients who were treated with OGS. Therefore, it is necessary to consider presurgical orthodontic treatment and surgical planning based on the skeletal phenotypes of CLP patients.

Abstract
This study aimed to classify the skeletal phenotypes of preadolescent patients with isolated cleft palate using principal component analysis and cluster analysis. Sixty-four preadolescent female patients with isolated cleft palate (incomplete hard palate and complete soft palate cleft group, n=51; complete cleft of the hard and soft palate group, n=13; the mean age when lateral cephalograms were taken, 7.08±0.76 y) were included. Ten angular and 2 ratio cephalometric variables were measured on a lateral cephalogram. Cluster analysis was performed using 3 representative variables obtained from principal component analysis (SN-GoMe, SNA, and SNB). The differences in the variables among the clusters were characterized using the Kruskal-Wallis test. As a result of the analysis, 6 clusters were obtained from 3 groups: the retrusive maxilla and mandible group: cluster 3 (14.1%, moderately hyperdivergent pattern), cluster 5 (17.2%, severely hyperdivergent pattern); the normal maxilla and mandible group: cluster 1 (23.4%, normodivergent pattern), cluster 4 (12.5%, moderately hyperdivergent pattern), cluster 6 (20.3%, severely hyperdivergent pattern); the normal maxilla and protrusive mandible group: cluster 2 (12.5%, normodivergent pattern). The distribution of isolated cleft palate types did not differ among the 6 clusters ( P >0.05). Two thirds of the patients (68.7%, clusters 1, 2, 4, and 6) had a normal anteroposterior position of the maxilla, while one third of the patients (31.3%, clusters 3 and 5) showed a retrusive mandible. These results indicate that isolated cleft palate patients have diverse maxillo-mandibular growth patterns compared with patients with cleft lip and palate.

Facial Asymmetry Phenotypes in Adult Patients With Unilateral Cleft Lip and Palate and Skeletal Class III Malocclusion Using Principal Component Analysis and Cluster Analysis. J Craniofac Surg 2023; 34:e314-e319. [PMID: 36939920 DOI: 10.1097/scs.0000000000009284] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/08/2022] [Accepted: 12/06/2022] [Indexed: 03/21/2023] Open
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to classify and characterize facial asymmetry (FA) phenotypes in adult patients with unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP) and skeletal class III malocclusion. The samples comprised 52 adult UCLP patients (36 men and 16 women; mean age, 22.43 y) who had undergone orthognathic surgery for correction of class III malocclusion. After measurement of 22 cephalometric parameters in posteroanterior cephalograms taken 1 month before orthognathic surgery, principal component analysis was performed to obtain 5 representative parameters [deviation (mm) of ANS (ANS-dev), maxillary central incisor contact point (Mx1-dev), and menton (Me-dev); cant (degree) of the maxillary anterior occlusal plane (MxAntOP-cant) and mandibular border (MnBorder-cant)]. K-means cluster analysis was conducted using these representative parameters. The differences in cephalometric parameters among the clusters were statistically analyzed. The FA phenotypes were classified into 4 types: No-cant-and-No-deviation type (cluster-4, n=16, 30.8%); MxMn-cant-MxMn-dev to the cleft-side type (cluster-3, n=4, 7.7%); Mx-cant-Mn-shift to the cleft-side type (cluster-2, n=15, 28.8%); and Mn-cant-Mn-dev to the noncleft-side type (cluster-1, n=17, 32.7%). Asymmetry in the maxilla and/or mandible were observed in 70% of patients. One third of patients (cluster-2 and cluster-3; sum, 36.5%) exhibited significant cant of MxAntOP induced by cleft and cant or shift of the mandible to the cleft side. Another one third of patients (cluster-1, 32.7%) demonstrated significant deviation and cant of the mandible to the noncleft-side despite cleft in the maxilla. This FA phenotype classification might be a basic guideline for diagnosis and treatment planning for UCLP patients.

Abstract
Recent deep learning algorithms have further improved risk classification capabilities. However, an appropriate feature selection method is required to overcome dimensionality issues in population-based genetic studies. In this Korean case-control study of nonsyndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCL/P), we compared the predictive performance of models that were developed by using the genetic-algorithm-optimized neural networks ensemble (GANNE) technique with those models that were generated by eight conventional risk classification methods, including polygenic risk score (PRS), random forest (RF), support vector machine (SVM), extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost), and deep-learning-based artificial neural network (ANN). GANNE, which is capable of automatic input SNP selection, exhibited the highest predictive power, especially in the 10-SNP model (AUC of 88.2%), thus improving the AUC by 23% and 17% compared to PRS and ANN, respectively. Genes mapped with input SNPs that were selected by using a genetic algorithm (GA) were functionally validated for risks of developing NSCL/P in gene ontology and protein-protein interaction (PPI) network analyses. The IRF6 gene, which is most frequently selected via GA, was also a major hub gene in the PPI network. Genes such as RUNX2, MTHFR, PVRL1, TGFB3, and TBX22 significantly contributed to predicting NSCL/P risk. GANNE is an efficient disease risk classification method using a minimum optimal set of SNPs; however, further validation studies are needed to ensure the clinical utility of the model for predicting NSCL/P risk.

Abstract
ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to investigate three-dimensional facial soft tissue changes after bimaxillary orthognathic surgery (BOGS) in patients with cleft lip and palate. The samples consisted of 34 Korean young adult patients with skeletal class III malocclusion who underwent BOGS for maxillary advancement/posterior impaction and mandibular setback. They were divided into cleft-class III (C-CIII) group (n = 18) and noncleft-class III (NC-CIII) group (n = 16). Three-dimensional computed tomography images were taken 1 month before (T1) and 3 months after (T2) surgery. After 34 hard/soft tissue landmarks were automatically identified using software, the amount and direction of change in landmarks and the amount of change in 16 soft tissue variables during T1-T2 were calculated. Then, statistical analysis was performed. Compared to NC-CIII group, C-CIII group showed more posteriorly-positioned hard/soft tissue landmarks, larger alar width, alar base width and philtrum width, and more obtuse nasal tip angle at both T1 and T2 stages. C-CIII group exhibited higher soft-to-hard tissue movement ratios at the bottom of the nose (ΔSn/ΔANS, 1.08 versus 0.81) and the upper part of the upper lip (ΔPoint A'/ΔPoint A, 1.08 versus 0.91), but a lower ratio at the lower part of the upper lip (ΔLs'/ΔIs, 0.72 versus 1.01) than NC-CIII group. The number of hard-soft tissue landmarks with high correlation (>0.90) was smaller in C-CIII group than in NC-CIII group (2 versus 6). Scar tissues and abnormal muscles in the nose and upper lip might elicit different responses in the nasolabial soft tissues to BOGS between C-CIII and NC-CIII patients.

Cephalometric Predictors of Future need for Orthognathic Surgery in Korean Patients with Unilateral Cleft Lip and Palate Despite Long-term Use of Facemask with Miniplate. Korean J Orthod 2021; 51:43-54. [PMID: 33446620 PMCID: PMC7837797 DOI: 10.4041/kjod.2021.51.1.43] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/29/2020] [Revised: 08/19/2020] [Accepted: 08/21/2020] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective To investigate the cephalometric predictors of the future need for orthognathic surgery in Korean patients with unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP) despite long-term use of facemask with miniplate (FMMP). Methods The sample consisted of 53 UCLP patients treated by a single orthodontist using an identical protocol. Lateral cephalograms were taken before commencement of FMMP therapy (T0; mean age, 10.45 years), after FMMP therapy (T1; mean age, 14.72 years), and at follow-up (T2; mean age, 18.68 years). Twenty-eight cephalometric variables were measured. At T2 stage, the subjects were divided into FMMP-Nonsurgery (n = 33, 62.3%) and FMMP-Surgery (n = 20, 37.7%) groups according to cephalometric criteria (point A-nasion-point B [ANB] < –3°; Wits-appraisal < –5 mm; and Harvold unit difference [HUD] > 34 mm for FMMP-Surgery group). Statistical analyses including discrimination analysis were performed. Results In FMMP-Surgery group, the forward position of the mandible at T0 stage was maintained throughout the whole stages and Class III relationship worsened with significant growth of the mandibular body and ramus and counterclockwise rotation of the maxilla and mandible at the T1 and T2 stages. Six cephalometric variables at T0 stage including ANB, anteroposterior dysplasia indicator, Wits-appraisal, mandibular body length, HUD, and overjet were selected as effective predictors of the future need for surgical intervention to correct sagittal skeletal discrepancies. Conclusions Despite long-term use of FMMP therapy, 37.7% of UCLP patients became candidates for orthognathic surgery. Therefore, differential diagnosis is necessary to predict the future need for orthognathic surgery at early age.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To review the study design, type, protocol, and treatment outcomes of miniplate-anchored maxillary protraction (MAMP) in adolescent patients with unilateral or bilateral cleft lip and palate. SETTING/SAMPLE POPULATION Five retrospective and two prospective studies (n = 138 patients) were selected as per the inclusion criteria. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study design, type, protocol of MAMP and the amount of skeletodental change were investigated. RESULTS Two studies adopted type 1 (two miniplates at the infrazygomatic crest with a facemask), four studies adopted type 2 (four miniplates at the infrazygomatic crest and mandibular symphysis and use of intermaxillary elastics), and one study compared the two types. The mean start age was older than 10 years except one study. The mean duration was less than 1 year in two studies, between 1 and 2 years in three studies, and more than 2 years in two studies. The type 1 used 500 g/side for 12-14 h/d, and the type 2 used three increase methods (100, 200, 250 g/side; 75, 150, 250 g/side; 150, 200, and 250 g/side) for 24 h/d. The ranges of A point advancement were 0.5°-4.2° in ΔSNA and 1.7-5.6 mm in ΔA-vertical reference plane, respectively. The ranges of rotation of the palatal plane, occlusal plane, and mandibular plane were -1.5° to 2.0°, -2.0° to 2.0°, -1.5° to 3.2°, respectively. The increase of overjet was ranged from 2.3 to 5.8 mm. CONCLUSION The MAMP therapy is effective for the correction of maxillary hypoplasia in adolescent cleft patients despite different types and protocols.

Functional stability analyses of maxillofacial skeleton bearing cleft deformities. Sci Rep 2019; 9:4261.

Abstract
The symmetrically stable craniofacial bony structure supports the complex functions and delicate contour of the face. Congenital craniofacial deformities are often accompanied by bony defects and have been repetitively correlated with compromised dento-maxillary stability, but neither the extent nor the pattern of cleft-related maxillary instability has been explored in detail. Furthermore, it is largely unknown if the bony defect and related instability are correlated with secondary maxillary deformity common among patients with orofacial clefts. With the aid of finite element modeling, we studied the detailed relationship between cleft-related bony defect and maxillary stability under occlusal loading. Craniofacial models were generated based on cone-beam computed tomography data and loaded with mimicked bite forces along the axial axis of each tooth. Our data showed that all cleft models exhibited more asymmetrical deformations under mastication compared with the normal. Models with palatal cleft demonstrated greater asymmetry, greater dental arch contraction, and less maxillary protrusion compared to models with alveolar cleft only. For unilateral cleft models, alveolus on non-cleft side tended to be more protruded and lifted than the cleft side. For bilateral cleft models, the most prominent feature was the seriously contracted alveolar arch and curved and pitched premaxillae. These findings indicated cleft type-specific pattern of maxillary instability, which were largely in accordance with dentoalveolar morphological features among patients. Collectively, our study elucidated the detailed relationship between cleft bony defect and the pattern of maxillary instability, and suggested a prototype for studying the abnormal maxillary and dental arch growth among patients with craniofacial deformities.

Abstract
The purpose of this retrospective study was to investigate the effect of a long-term use of facemask with miniplate (FM-MP) on maxillary protraction in cleft lip and palate (CLP) patients. The subjects were 21 CLP patients (16 unilateral CLP and 5 bilateral CLP patients), who were treated with identical lip and palate surgical method and FM-MP therapy performed by single surgeon and single orthodontist. Lateral cephalogram was taken before (T1; mean age, 11.1 years) and after maxillary protraction (T2; mean age, 16.9 years). The mean duration of FM-MP was 68.0 months. After 17 cephalometric variables were measured, statistical analysis was performed. During T1-T2, the maxilla showed significant forward movement (ΔA-vertical reference plane, 4.8 mm, P < 0.001; ΔSNA, 1.9 degree, P < 0.001; ΔA-N perp, 1.9 mm, P < 0.05), although the mandible exhibited a forward growth (ΔSNB, 1.2 degree, P < 0.05). Despite downward movement of the posterior maxilla with counterclockwise rotation (Δpalatal plane angle, -1.5 degree, P < 0.05), the mandible did not exhibit clockwise rotation but counterclockwise rotation (ΔSN to mandibular plane angle, -1.4 degree, ΔBjork sum, -1.4 degree, Δocclusal plane to SN plane angle, -1.5 degree, ΔFMA, -1.0 degree, all P < 0.05) and showed decrease in Gonial angle (-1.2 degree, P < 0.01). Although there was labioversion of the maxillary incisor (ΔU1 to SN, 4.1 degree, P < 0.05), the mandibular incisor did not exhibit significant linguoversion (ΔIMPA, -1.3 degree, P > 0.05). Long-term use of FM-MP is effective on maxillary protraction in adolescent CLP patients without clockwise rotation of the mandible, the main drawback of conventional facemask with tooth-borne anchorage.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The purpose of this study was to predict the need for orthognathic surgery in patients with unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP) in the early permanent dentition. METHODS In this retrospective cohort study, we included 61 patients with complete UCLP (36 male, 25 female; mean age, 18.47 years; range, 16.92-26.17 years). The subjects were grouped into an orthognathic surgery group and a nonsurgery group at the time of growth completion. Lateral cephalograms obtained at the age of 11 years were analyzed to compare the 2 groups. The receiver operating characteristic analysis was applied to predict the probability of the need for orthognathic surgery in early adulthood by using the measurements obtained at the age of 11 years. RESULTS SNB, ANB, SN, overbite, overjet, maxillary length, mandibular body length, and L1-MP were found to be significantly different between the 2 groups. For a person with a score of 2 in the 3-variable-based criteria, the sensitivity and specificity for determining the need for surgical treatment were 90.0% and 83.9%, respectively (ANB, ≤-0.45°; overjet, ≤-2.00 mm; maxillary length, ≤47.25 mm). CONCLUSIONS Three cephalometric variables, the minimum number of discriminators required to obtain the optimum discriminant effectiveness, predicted the future need for orthognathic surgery with an accuracy of 86.9% in patients with UCLP.

Abstract
The purpose of this case report was to introduce the concept of orthodontic and orthopedic treatment for a growing patient with Tessier number 0 cleft. A 5-year-old boy patient with Tessier number 0 cleft presented congenitally missing maxillary central incisors (MXCI), a bony defect at the premaxilla, a constricted maxillary arch, an anterior openbite, and maxillary hypoplasia. His treatment was divided into three stages: management of the bony defect at the premaxilla and the congenitally missing MXCIs using a fan-type expansion plate, iliac bone grafting, and eruption guidance of the maxillary lateral incisors into the graft area for substitution of MXCIs; management of the maxillary hypoplasia using sequential facemask therapy with conventional and skeletal anchorage; and management of the remaining occlusal problems using fixed orthodontic treatment. The total treatment duration was 15 years and 10 months. Class I canine and Class II molar relationships and normal overbite and overjet were achieved at the end of treatment. Although the long-term use of facemask therapy resulted in significant protraction of the retrusive maxilla, the patient exhibited Class III profile because of continued mandibular growth. However, the treatment result was well maintained after 2 years of retention. The findings from this case suggest that interdisciplinary and customized approaches are mandatory for successful management of maxillary hypoplasia, bony defect, and dental problems in Tessier number 0 cleft. Moreover, considering the potential of orthognathic surgery or distraction osteogenesis, meticulous monitoring of mandibular growth until growth completion is important.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of secondary alveolar bone grafting (SABG) on the maxillary growth in patients with unilateral (UCLP) and bilateral cleft lip and palate (BCLP). The samples consisted of 40 Korean boy cleft patients who had the similar initial skeletal characteristics and were treated with the identical treatment protocol. They were divided into UCLP group (N = 25; mean SABG age, 9.9 years; mean follow-up duration, 42.3 months) and BCLP group (N = 15; mean SABG age, 10.2 years; mean follow-up duration, 40.6 months). In the lateral cephalograms taken 1 month before (T1) and at least 2 years after SABG (T2), cephalometric variables were measured. At T1 stage, the 2 groups did not exhibit significant differences in the cephalometric variables except posterior maxillary height (P-HRP) (P < 0.05). At T2 stage, both groups exhibited the reduced sagittal growth (UCLP, ANB, P < 0.001; AB to facial plane angle (AB-FPA), P < 0.01; BCLP, A to N perpendicular, P < 0.05; ANB and AB-FPA, P < 0.001) and the undisturbed vertical growth (A-HRP and P-HRP, all P < 0.001) of the maxilla. During T1 to T2, BCLP group experienced more aggravation of Class III skeletal pattern than UCLP group (ΔAB-FPA, P < 0.05). There, however, were no differences in the amounts of changes in the maxillary vertical position and mandibular plane angulation between the 2 groups. Two-stage SABG procedure subgroup in patients with BCLP demonstrated a more retrusive maxilla compared with 1-stage SABG procedure subgroup (ΔSNA, P < 0.05). Patients with BCLP, especially who underwent 2-stage SABG procedure, might have a possibility of poor sagittal growth of the maxilla compared with patients having UCLP.

Abstract
Objective To evaluate the effects of lip repair on maxillofacial development of patients with unilateral cleft lip with or without cleft palate. Design Retrospective. Patients A total of 75 patients were recruited, including 38 surgical patients with complete unilateral cleft lip and alveolus and 37 patients with complete unilateral cleft lip and palate who had lip but not palate repair. As controls, 38 patients with no cleft were selected. All subjects were divided according to two growth stages: before the pubertal peak (GS1) and after the pubertal peak (GS2) Interventions Lateral cephalograms of all subjects were obtained. Main Outcome Measures Cephalograms were analyzed and compared in the study and control groups. Results The patients with unilateral cleft lip and palate in both GS1 and GS2 demonstrated an almost normal maxillary and mandibular growth with retroclined maxillary incisors. The patients with unilateral cleft lip and palate showed a shorter length of maxilla, a more clockwise-rotated mandible, and retroclined maxillary incisors. Conclusions There was an almost normal maxillary and mandibular growth but retroclined maxillary incisors in patients with cleft lip with or without cleft palate who had received lip repair only, indicating that lip repair may not have a negative impact on the maxillofacial development and influences only the inclination of the maxillary incisors. The shorter anterior-posterior maxillary length and larger gonial angle in patients with unilateral cleft lip and palate compared with those in patients with unilateral cleft lip and alveolus suggest that these variations in maxillary and mandibular growth may be a consequence of the cleft itself.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE A national survey was conducted to assess orthodontic residents' current concepts and knowledge of cleft lip and palate (CLP) management in Korea. METHODS A questionnaire consisting of 7 categories and 36 question items was distributed to 16 senior chief residents of orthodontic department at 11 dental university hospitals and 5 medical university hospitals in Korea. All respondents completed the questionnaires and returned them. RESULTS All of the respondents reported that they belonged to an interdisciplinary team. Nineteen percent indicated that they use presurgical infant orthopedic (PSIO) appliances. The percentage of respondents who reported they were 'unsure' about the methods about for cleft repair operation method was relatively high. Eighty-six percent reported that the orthodontic treatment was started at the deciduous or mixed dentition. Various answers were given regarding the amount of maxillary expansion for alveolar bone graft and the estimates of spontaneous or forced eruption of the upper canine. Sixty-seven percent reported use of a rapid maxillary expansion appliance as an anchorage device for maxillary protraction with a facemask. There was consensus among respondents regarding daily wearing time, duration of treatment, and amount of orthopedic force. Various estimates were given for the relapse percentage after maxillary advancement distraction osteogenesis (MADO). Most respondents did not have sufficient experience with MADO. CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest that education about the concepts and methods of PSIO and surgical repair, consensus regarding orthodontic management protocols, and additional MADO experience are needed in order to improve the quality of CLP management in Korean orthodontic residents.
