The objective of this study was two-fold: (1) to explore the suitability of a novel modified Procrustes fit method to adjust data for head motion during instructed facial movements, and (2) to compare the adjusted data among repaired unilateral (n = 4) and bilateral (n = 5) cleft lip and palate patients and noncleft control subjects (n = 50). Using a video-based tracking system, three-dimension...

On extra-oral examination, an obvious facial asymmetry of the mandibular third with deviation of chin to right with a convex profile and excessive exposure of lower lip was noticeable. Bilateral temporomandibular joint and condylar movements were within normal limits without any clicking or grating noise. The mentolabial sulcus and the nasolabial sulcus were flattened. Intra-oral examination re...
