Repair of bilateral cleft lip over prominent premaxilla.

Our experience of 25 cases of Millard's repair for bilateral cleft lip is described. We close the alveolus and anterior palate at the same time. The technique is applicable even in the presence of a prominent premaxilla with no previous oral orthopaedics of lip adhesion. The surgical correction of a bilateral cleft lip and palate is completed in two operative procedures. We show that good aesthetic and functional results were achieved.
