The purpose of this study was to determine orthopedic changes in 0-4 months newborns with cleft lip and palate treated with presurgical nasoalveolar molding. A prospective, longitudinal, quasi-experimental, self-controlled study was conducted in a group of newborns with cleft lip and palate unilateral (n = 4) and bilateral (n = 2) who attended the cleft of the Service Unit of Orthodontics and Maxillary Orthopedics, National Institute of Child Health from April 2011 to April 2012. Nasoalveolar molding was performed in newborns with cleft lip and palate, and it was controlled each ten days. Basal photographs and study casts were studied at the start and at the end of the therapy. Nasal angle columella (NAC) and columella length (CL) measures were taken from photographs, and separation length of the alveolar ridges (SLAR) from study casts. The NAC at the beginning on average was 36 and the final on average was 47.5. The CL at the beginning was 0 and the final was 1.82 and 2 mm. The SLAR at the beginning was from 4.07 to 12.05 and the final was from 1.75 to 8.96. The performance of nasoalveolar molding reduced the alveolar ridges separation, measures less than 4 mm were obtained, the columella angle increased in newborns with unilateral cleft lip and palate and the nasal columella length increased in newborns with bilateral cleft lip and palate. Average measures were used because it was a small sample. It is concluded that the presurgical nasoalveolar molding after being performed showed orthopedic changes in 0-4 months newborns with cleft lip and palate.
