Developmental Process
Developmental Staging
- Two main stages of palate development, primary and secondary
- Morphology of face established between weeks four and five
- 7th week – intermaxillary process formed, Intermaxillary process gives rise to primary palate
- End of 7th week – palantine shelves start to move into position and fuse together to form secondary palate
- Failure of these palantine shelves to fuse results in cleft palate
- Secondary palate fused during 10th week
- Cleft palate results in failure of the two maxillary processes to fuse with the descending part of the intermaxillary process
Abnormality Classification
- There has been a new proposed classification system
- Cleft palate and cleft lip have different embryological origins
- More than 300 syndromes involving facial clefting
- Can be unilateral or bilateral
