Prosthetic Rehabilitation of Cleft Palate Patient : A Case Report.

ABSTRACT

Cleft palate is a commonly observed congenital maxillofacial defect. Numerous methods of prosthodontic rehabilitation have been advocated ranging from simple removable prosthesis to implant supported restorations. The final choice mainly depends upon the existing clinical condition and patient’s acceptance towards treatment. This clinical report describes a conservative and cost effective method of rehabilitation of a cleft palate patient using a removable partial denture made from heat polymerizing acrylic resin.
