At your regular appointments with the cleft team, the speech-language pathologist will carefully listen to your child's speech to help the surgeon decide if another surgery is needed to improve speech. [kidshealth.org]

The hamulus may be fractured, the muscle is repaired, and the oral mucosa is closed as a separate layer. In a further modification of the two-flap palatoplasty, the mucoperiosteal flaps are rotated medially. [emedicine.medscape.com]

Treatment involves a team of health care providers. The type of treatment depends on how severe the problem is. Surgery is the most common treatment for a cleft palate. [healthlinkbc.ca]
Treatments for cleft lip and palate Cleft lip and cleft palate are treated at specialist NHS cleft centres. Your child will usually have a long-term care plan that outlines the treatments and assessments they'll need as they grow up. [nhs.uk]
Prognosis
Type-specific sonographic features include: type III: may be seen as a premaxillary echogenic mass 8 Ancillary sonographic features there can be polyhydramnios if the defect is severe and impairs swallowing Treatment and prognosis The overall prognosis [radiopaedia.org]

These are distinct entities with different implications regarding underlying genetic syndromes, associated anomalies, and prognosis. [pubs.rsna.org]
Etiology
Some content is also relevant to individuals with velopharyngeal inadequacy, secondary to various other etiologies. See the Cleft Lip and Palate Evidence Map for summaries of the available research on this topic. [asha.org]
Pathogenesis Etiology Hereditary. Trauma. Timecourse Some horses grow reasonably but develop nasal reflux of food at older ages (often up to 4 years for first time). [vetstream.com]
Cartilage hypoplasia and cranial base abnormality have also been posited as potential etiologies. [medicine.uiowa.edu]
Etiology The etiology of SCN-E and MCN-E remains to be fully elucidated. The SCN can be entrapped not only in the osteofibrous tunnel in the iliac crest but also at the site where it penetrates the thoraco-lumbar fascia [2,6,11,17,28,35]. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Cleft lip and palate (CL/P) and cleft palate alone (CP) are different entities with varying incidence, epidemiology, and genetics. [encyclopedia.com]
Epidemiology Frequency The incidence of cleft lip/palate by race is 2.1/1000 in Asians, 1/1000 in whites, and 0.41/1000 in blacks. Isolated cleft palate shows a relatively constant ratio of 0.45-0.5/1000 births. [emedicine.medscape.com]

A defect in the alveolus can (1) displace, tip, or rotate permanent teeth, (2) prevent permanent teeth from appearing, and (3) prevent the alveolar ridge from forming. These problems can usually be repaired through oral surgery. [webmd.com]
The flap was directed into the palatal defect via the right alveolar cleft and sutured in a fashion to prevent dehiscence and fistulization. RESULTS: The surface of the flap mucosalized over an 8-week period. The defect was completely closed. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
