Who will it benefit from this workshop: This workshop is aimed at young Cleft and Craniofacial surgeons, trainees and practicing Cleft surgeons unfamiliar with these techniques.                    

a.    Basic understanding of the dynamics of the cleft midface and alveolus

b.    Decision making in the real world

c.    Basic orthodontic preparation

d.    Planning of midface correction including large discrepancies and crowding of teeth

e.    Surgical techniques, mechanics and force vectors of distractors, dealing with relapse

f.     Pitfalls and potential complications

Course Speakers: Dr. Martin Persson and Gareth Davies

This is course is open to all with registration.

The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals include educational attainment and mental health as essential variables. Simultaneously, research indicates that individuals with cleft are more at risk of adverse educational attainment and/or poor mental health outcomes. These factors are also exacerbated depending on the living situation. This session will highlight the psychosocial challenges for individuals and families with cleft in a global context. Moreover, a strategy for how to provide support via different modalities in healthcare and community settings will be introduced.
