| Abstract | Background The developmental patterns of children with cleft lip and palate (CLP) can affect the therapeutic effects. However, a consensus has not been reached on whether the development of children with CLP is delayed or advanced. We aimed to characterize the developmental patterns of children with CLP by skeletal maturation and to explore the relationship between skeletal maturation and dentition in children with CLP. Methods This retrospective study included 425 children, aged 4–18 years, categorized into three groups: unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP, 157), bilateral cleft lip and palate (BCLP, 134), and non-cleft controls (NCLP, 134). Skeletal maturation stages were assessed using the 5-stage cervical vertebral maturation (CVM) method. Adenoidal and tonsil hypertrophy was also assessed based on cephalometric radiographs. Dentition stages were evaluated based on the eruption of mandibular teeth. Logistic regression models were used to analyze the relationship between CLP and skeletal maturation, adjusting for adenoidal and tonsil hypertrophy and sex. The children were further subgrouped by sex, cleft type, and age to examine developmental patterns and the relationship between skeletal maturation and dentition. Results In both sexes, children with CLP exhibited delayed skeletal maturation at specific developmental stages compared to NCLP children, but eventually caught up to their non-cleft peers. This delay and subsequent catch-up occurred approximately three years earlier in girls with CLP than in boys. While dentition stages showed a strong correlation with CVM stages, the diagnostic utility of dentition for assessing skeletal maturation was found to be limited. Conclusions Children with CLP exhibit a delayed onset of the growth spurt, followed by a period of catch-up growth. Additionally, dentition stage should not be used as a surrogate marker for skeletal maturation when evaluating the developmental potential of children with CLP. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
