Abstract :

 Presurgical nasoalveolar molding (PNAM) is a presurgical infant orthopedic procedure that attempts to target the nasal deformity leading to a more esthetic surgical repair. It is the nonsurgical, passive method of inging the gum and lip together by redirecting the forces of natural growth. This clinical report presents a case of child with complete unilateral cleft lip and palate who has undergone Presurgical nasoalveolar molding. The purpose of this article is to highlight the role of nasoalveolar molding  in improving the anatomic relationship between the structures affected by cleft deformity.
