Lip taping was proven as simple, handy technique of PSIO for alveolar molding yielding enhanced maxillary arch dimensions in UCCLP infants.
The approach behind this study is to combine this simple step with a digitally designed 3D printed customized nasal molding device to enhance the naslolabial esthetics and maxillary arch dimensions in infants with unilateral complete cleft lip and palate, employing full digital workflow.
